Cellosaurus HEK293 Actin-cpstFRET-Actin (CVCL_ZV87)
| Cell line name | HEK293 Actin-cpstFRET-Actin |
|---|---|
| Synonyms | HEK293 AcpA; Beta-M-HEK |
| Accession | CVCL_ZV87 |
| Resource Identification Initiative | To cite this cell line use: HEK293 Actin-cpstFRET-Actin (RRID:CVCL_ZV87) |
| Comments | Characteristics: Used to report forces in actin in living cells. Has one actin molecule attached on each end of cpstFRET. 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:132; ACTB. Genetic integration: Method=Transfection; Gene=UniProtKB; P00552; Transposon Tn5 neo. Transformant: NCBI_TaxID; 28285; Adenovirus 5. Derived from site: In situ; Fetal kidney; UBERON=UBERON_0002113. |
