- Extra Details:
- The U-2 OS-CRISPR-NUP96-SNAP is a genetically modified osteosarcoma cell line derived from the parent U-2 OS human cell line. This cell line has been engineered through CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome editing to incorporate a SNAP-tag at the NUP96 gene, enabling the visualization and study of nuclear pore complex dynamics. Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) are crucial for the regulation of nucleocytoplasmic transport, and NUP96 is a significant component of the NPC, playing a pivotal role in its structural integrity and function. In U-2 OS-CRISPR-NUP96-SNAP clone no.33, the integration of the SNAP-tag at the NUP96 locus allows for specific and covalent attachment of fluorescent substrates or other chemical probes that can be used for live-cell imaging and other biochemical assays. This feature makes it an invaluable tool for investigating the molecular dynamics of nucleocytoplasmic transport, understanding NPC-related pathologies, and screening for therapeutic compounds that affect NPC function. The cell line also retains the characteristics of the parental U-2 OS line, which includes a high level of genetic stability and ease of culture, making it suitable for high-throughput screening and extended studies in cell biology. Due to the specificity of the modification at the NUP96 gene, U-2 OS-CRISPR-NUP96-SNAP clone no.33 provides a unique model for the detailed study of NPC components in the context of cellular function and dysfunction. Researchers can exploit the SNAP-tag system to selectively and rapidly label NUP96, facilitating real-time visualization of NPC dynamics under physiological and pathological conditions. This specific clone can serve as a robust platform for both basic research and applied biomedical studies, contributing significantly to the fields of cellular biology, genetics, and oncology.
