Cellosaurus HeLa-Difluo hLC3 (CVCL_A8CA)

[Text version]
Cell line name HeLa-Difluo hLC3
Accession CVCL_A8CA
Resource Identification Initiative To cite this cell line use: HeLa-Difluo hLC3 (RRID:CVCL_A8CA)
Comments Population: African American.
Characteristics: Allows monitoring of autophagic flux in real time by detecting the appearance of dual red and green RFP:GFP:LC3 puncta or single red RFP:LC3 puncta by fluorescence microscopy. Early in autophagy, both RFP and GFP signals are detected. As the fusion of the autophagosomes with the lysosomes progresses, the GFP fluorescence diminishes, leaving only the RFP fluorescence visible. The percentages of RFP-GFP positive and of RFP positive cells can be determined and these values can be used to assess autophagic flux (InvivoGen).
Characteristics: Stably expresses a RFP-GFP-MAP1LC3B construct.
