These proteins function as dimeric transcription factors that control genes regulating a broad range of biological processes including innate and adaptive immunity, inflammation, stress responses, B cell development, and lymphoid organogenesis. In the classical (or canonical) pathway, NF-κB\/Rel proteins are bound and inhibited by IκB proteins. Proinflammatory cytokines, LPS, growth factors, and antigen receptors activate an IKK complex (IKKβ, IKKα, and NEMO), which phosphorylates IκB proteins. Phosphorylation of IκB leads to its ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation, freeing NF-κB\/Rel complexes. Active NF-κB\/Rel complexes are further activated by phosphorylation and translocate to the nucleus where they induce target gene expression. In the alternative (or noncanonical) NF-κB pathway, NF-κB2 p100\/ RelB complexes are inactive in the cytoplasm. Signaling through a subset of receptors, including LTβR, CD40, and BR3, activates the kinase NIK, which in turn activates IKKα complexes that phosphorylate C-terminal residues in NF-κB2 p100. Phosphorylation of NF-κB2 p100 leads to its ubiquitination and proteasomal processing to NF-κB2 p52, creating transcriptionally competent NF-κB p52\/RelB complexes that translocate to the nucleus and induce target gene expression.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"bhp-cat-pill\"\u003eCell Signaling\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe NF-κB reporter (Luc) HEK293 cell line is designed to monitor nuclear factor Kappa B (NF-κB) activity. It contains a firefly luciferase gene driven by four copies of the NF-κB response element located upstream of the minimal TATA promoter. After activation by pro-inflammatory cytokines or agonists of lymphokine receptors, endogenous NF-κB transcription factors bind to the DNA response elements, inducing transcription of the luciferase reporter gene. The cell line has been functionally validated in response to human TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-17.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"bhp-spec-table\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHost Cell Line\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHEK293\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHost Species\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHuman\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eTransfection Method\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLipofectamine 2000\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFormat\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAqueous solution containing DMSO\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSupplied As\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEach vial contains ~2 X 10^6 cells in 1 ml of 10% DMSO.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHarmonized Tariff Code\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3002-5900\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuality Control \u0026amp; Validation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"bhp-qc-badge\"\u003e✓ Mycoplasma-Tested\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cell line has been screened using the PCR-based Venor™GeM Mycoplasma Detection kit (Sigma Aldrich) to confirm the absence of Mycoplasma species.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eUsage Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSee data sheet for detailed culturing and assay protocol.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSafety \u0026amp; Handling\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"bhp-warning-box\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 4px\"\u003e⚠ Avoid freeze\/thaw cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eRegulatory Information\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"bhp-regulatory-row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"bhp-reg-item\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLicense Required\u003c\/strong\u003eYes\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"bhp-reg-item\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLiving Modified Organism\u003c\/strong\u003eYes\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eLicense Disclosure\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"bhp-license-box\"\u003ePurchase of this cell line grants you with a 10-year license to use this cell line in your immediate laboratory, for research use only.
