Cellosaurus A-375 MEK1 p.Q56P (CVCL_UD28)

[Text version]
Cell line name A-375 MEK1 p.Q56P
Synonyms A-375 MEK1Q56P; MEK1 Mutant-A375 Isogenic Cell Line
Accession CVCL_UD28
Resource Identification Initiative To cite this cell line use: A-375 MEK1 p.Q56P (RRID:CVCL_UD28)
Comments Population: Caucasian.
Characteristics: Exhibits significant resistance to the BRAF inhibitors Dabrafineb and Vemurafenib, as well as the MAP2K1 inhibitor trametinib when compared to its parental cell line. Displays increased sensitivity to combination MAP2K1/BRAF inhibitor treatments, making this line an ideal model system for the development of novel combination therapies targeting multiple points in the RAS-RAF-MEK-ERK-MAPK signaling pathway, as well as for the screening of new potential BRAF and MAP2K1 inhibitors (ATCC=CRL-1619IG-3).
Doubling time: ~19 hours (ATCC=CRL-1619IG-3).
Derived from site: In situ; Leg, skin; UBERON=UBERON_0001511.
