Tool Details
- Tool name: Jurkat Zip6KO
- Tool type: Cell Line
- Parental cell line: Jurkat
- Organism: Human
- Tissue: PBMC
- Cancer type: Blood cancer
- Growth properties: Impaired Activation
- Model: Zip6KO
- Model description: CRISPR/Cas9âexpressing Jurkat cell line used to generate a Zip6KO Jurkat cell line

-
Description: Cell line used to study how the absence of the Zip6 transporter affects lymphocyte physiology.
Zip6 Knockout (KO) line, Zip6 is strongly upregulated early during activiation of T lymphocytes stimulated using anti-CD3/anti-CD28 - Research area: Immunology; Cancer
- Production details: Cells were maintained in RPMI 1640 medium supplemented with 10% FBS and 1% penicillin/streptomycin. Where indicated, FBS was incubated according to the manufacturerâs instructions with Chelex 100 resin (Bio-Rad Laboratories) to generate Zn2+-free growth medium. Various amounts of ZnSO4 were added to the final medium to generate specific Zn2+ concentration conditions. Cells were grown at 37°C in a humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere.Â
