The AC16 cell line, derived from human ventricular cells fused with SV40-transformed, uridine-auxotroph fibroblasts, showcases characteristics of cardiomyocytes, including the expression of transcription factors GATA4, MYCD, NFATc4, and contractile proteins like alpha- and beta-myosin heavy chain. These cells also express gap junction proteins connexin-43 and connexin-40, with functional gap junctions confirmed by dye-coupling studies. When the SV40 oncogene is silenced, AC16 transitions towards a differentiated state, marked by the expression of BMP2, indicative of cardiac differentiation. AC16 cells' ability to mimic cardiomyocyte behavior, including cessation of proliferation and formation of multinucleated syncytia under specific conditions, makes it a valuable model for cardiac research. It retains the genetic material of primary cardiomyocytes, allowing for studies on cardiac development and pathology in vitro, bridging gaps in understanding heart disease mechanisms and potential

ADAR1 Responsive Luciferase Reporter HEK293 Cell Line is a HEK293 cell line designed to respond to ADAR1 enzymatic activity. These cells were engineered to express an ADAR1 reporter construct comprised of an ADAR1 hairpin target with a stop codon (UAG) susceptible to ADAR1-mediated editing to tryptophan (UUG), located upstream of a firefly luciferase reporter This cell line has been validated by comparing reporter activation after transfection with ADAR1 and ADAR2. This cell line has been used for the development of the constitutive ADAR1 expressing ADAR1 Activity Luciferase Reporter HEK293 Cell Line (#82239).

ADAR1 Activity Luciferase Reporter HEK293 Cell Line is a HEK293 cell line designed to monitor the activity of ADAR1 (adenosine deaminase acting on RNA) enzyme. These cells were engineered to express ADAR1 (NM_001111.5) and an ADAR1 reporter construct comprised of an ADAR1 hairpin target with a stop codon (UAG) susceptible to ADAR1-mediated editing to tryptophan (UUG), located upstream of a firefly luciferase reporter. This cell line has been validated by comparing reporter activation to ADAR1 Responsive Luciferase Reporter HEK293 Cell Line (#82238) and in response to treatment with ADAR1 siRNA.
