Product description: The MEF PKCe KO Cell Line is useful for studying the role of PKCe in various biological processes. Clonal MEFs have been derived from PKCepsilon knock-out embryos and subsequently stably transfected with empty pcDNA3 CMV/IE hygo+. Matched isogenic cell line with PKCe re-expressed is also available. Cells have reduced migratory capacity compared to their PKCe-expressing counterparts. Cells were used to demonstrate a role for PKCe in controlling the traffic of beta1 integrins in motile cells
Production details: MEFs were derived from PKCe knockout embryos. Polyclonal PKCeKO cells were transfected with pcDNA3 CMV/IE hygro+ vector using calcium phosphate. Clonal stable cell lines were selected using limiting dilution.
