Adherent
Target Information
Gene Function
Myosin regulatory subunit that plays an important role in regulation of both smooth muscle and nonmuscle cell contractile activity via its phosphorylation. Implicated in cytokinesis, receptor capping, and cell locomotion.
Sequence Similarities
Contains 3 EF-hand domains.
Post-translational Modifications
Phosphorylation increases the actin-activated myosin ATPase activity and thereby regulates the contractile activity. It is required to generate the driving force in the migration of the cells but not necessary for localization of myosin-2 at the leading edge.
Storage & Handling
Recommended Control
Human wild-type HeLa cell line.
Cryopreservation Cell Medium
Cell freezing medium - DMSO serum free media, contains 8.7% DMSO in MEM supplemented with methyl cellulose.
Culture Medium
DMEM (High Glucose) + 10% FBS
Initial Handling Guidelines
Upon arrival, the vial should be stored in liquid nitrogen vapor phase and not at -80 °C. Storage at -80 °C may result in loss of viability.
Storage Instructions
Shipped on dry ice. Store in liquid nitrogen.
Storage Buffer
Constituents: 8.7% Dimethylsulfoxide, 2% Cellulose, methyl ether.
