General description
A subclone of the parental CHO cell line, which was derived from the ovary of an adult Chinese hamster. Cells require proline due to the absence of the gene for proline synthesis, the block in the biosynthetic chain lies in the step converting glutamic acid to glutamine γ serialdehyde. They undergo morphological changes in response to cholera toxin.
CHO-K1 cells derived from ECACC CHO K1 and adapted to suspension and serum-free, chemically defined media. Cells are cGMP banked in chemically defined, animal component-free EX-CELL® CD CHO Fusion medium.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Hamster Chinese ovary. The parental CHO-K1 cell line was originated by Puck in 1957.
Physical form
CHOZN CHO K1 cells are provided to customers in vials containing 1 mL at 107 cells/mL. Cells are banked in EX-CELL CD Fusion medium containing 4mM L glutamine and 7% DMSO.
Legal Information
The CHOZN CHO K1 cell line is sold for research use only. For use of this cell line in a commercial process, a commercial license must be taken.

Glycine receptor 3 (GlyRα3) is a ligand-gated ion channel of the cys-loop family that plays a key role in mediating inhibitory neurotransmission and regulation of pain signaling in the dorsal horn. Potentiation of GlyRα3 function is therefore of interest as

Cardiac arrhythmias are often associated with mutations in SCN5A the gene that encodes the cardiac paralogue of the voltage-gated sodium channel, NaV 1.5. The NaV 1.5 mutants R1193Q and E1784K give rise to both long QT and Brugada syndromes. Various

Dravet syndrome is the prototype of SCN1A-mutation associated epilepsies. It is characterised by prolonged seizures, typically provoked by fever. We describe the evaluation of an SCN1A mutation in a child with early-onset temperature-sensitive seizures. The patient carries a heterozygous missense

Alignment of tropoelastin molecules during the process of elastogenesis is thought to require fibrillin-containing microfibrils. In this study, we have demonstrated that amino-terminal domains of two microfibrillar proteins, fibrillin-1 and fibrillin-2, interact with tropoelastin in solid phase binding assays. The
