Cellosaurus MDCK Actinin-M-cpstFRET (CVCL_ZV93)
| Cell line name | MDCK Actinin-M-cpstFRET |
|---|---|
| Synonyms | MDCK M-cpstFRET |
| Accession | CVCL_ZV93 |
| Resource Identification Initiative | To cite this cell line use: MDCK Actinin-M-cpstFRET (RRID:CVCL_ZV93) |
| Comments | Characteristics: Used to report forces in actinin in living cells. Has one actinin molecule with the cpstFRET sensor incorporated between spectrin repeat domains 3 and 4 toward the middle of actinin. The cpstFRET (circularly permuted stretch sensitive FRET) sensor consists of a pair of tandemly connected circularly permutated CFP/YFPs (cpCerulean/cpVenus). Mechanical loading twists the dipole orientation from near parallel to diagonal, decreasing FRET efficiency. Genetic integration: Method=Transfection; Gene=HGNC; HGNC:163; ACTN1. Genetic integration: Method=Transfection; Gene=UniProtKB; P00552; Klebsiella pneumoniae transposon Tn5 neo. Derived from site: In situ; Kidney; UBERON=UBERON_0002113. Cell type: Epithelial cell of kidney; CL=CL_0002518. |
