CHO-K1 cells are a subline derived from the CHO cell line, which was originally established in the early 1950s from a Chinese hamster ovary. CHO-K1 cells are widely utilized in the production of therapeutic monoclonal antibodies and other biopharmaceuticals. Their extensive use in biopharmaceutical protein production and vaccines is attributed to their eukaryotic nature, which allows for proper folding, assembly, and post-translational modifications such as glycosylation, which influences the stability, efficacy, and safety of the produced proteins.
In the realm of recombinant protein production, the CHO-K1 cell line is used to express a wide array of proteins, including monoclonal antibodies, growth factors, cytokines, and enzymes. These proteins have applications in therapeutic treatments, diagnostic assays, and vaccine formulations.
CHO-K1 cells exhibit a robust growth rate and are adaptable to various culture conditions, including suspension and adherent cultures, making them highly valuable for large-scale bioproduction processes. They possess a high level of genetic stability and are used for stable cell line development as they are capable of amplifying and expressing exogenous genes efficiently, which is critical for producing high yields of recombinant proteins.
CHO-K1 chinese hamster cells can be easily transfected with a variety of vectors for gene expression, facillitating gene editing or knockdown. This flexibility allows researchers to introduce specific genes, silence genes, or even perform targeted gene editing using technologies like CRISPR-Cas9 in CHO-K1 host cells.
In conclusion, the chinese hamster CHO-K1 cells and CHO cells are pivotal in biotechnological research and biopharmaceutical production, offering a versatile platform for the study of gene function and the large-scale production of recombinant proteins.

- Virus susceptibility: vesicular stomatitis (Indiana), Getah virus Virus Resist: poliovirus 2, modoc virus, Button Willow virus
- Reverse transcriptase: negative
- Karyotype: Chromosome Frequency Distribution 50 Cells: 2n = 22. Stemline number is hypodiploid
- cultureMedium: Ham's F12, w: 1.0 mM stable Glutamine, w: 1.0 mM Sodium pyruvate, w: 1.1 g/L NaHCO3 (Cytion article number 820600a)
- supplements: Supplement the medium with 10% FBS
- dissociationReagent: Accutase
- doublingTime: 22 hours
- subculturing: Remove the old medium from the adherent cells and wash them with PBS that lacks calcium and magnesium. For T25 flasks, use 3-5 ml of PBS, and for T75 flasks, use 5-10 ml. Then, cover the cells completely with Accutase, using 1-2 ml for T25 flasks and 2.5 ml for T75 flasks. Let the cells incubate at room temperature for 8-10 minutes to detach them. After incubation, gently mix the cells with 10 ml of medium to resuspend them, then centrifuge at 300xg for 3 minutes. Discard the supernatant, resuspend the cells in fresh medium, and transfer them into new flasks that already contain fresh medium.
- seedingDensity: 1 x 104 cells/cm2 will yield in a confluent layer in about 6 days
- fluidRenewal: 2 to 3 times per week
- postThawRecovery: After thawing, plate the cells at 5 x 104 cells/cm2 and allow the cells to recover from the freezing process and to adhere for at least 24 hours.
- freezeMedium: As a cryopreservation medium, use complete growth medium (including FBS) + 10% DMSO for adequate post-thaw viability, or CM-1 (Cytion catalog number 800100), which includes optimized osmoprotectants and metabolic stabilizers to enhance recovery and reduce cryo-induced stress.
