| Initial Handling Guidelines | 1. Thaw the vial in 37ºC water bath approximately 1-2 minutes. 2. Transfer the cell suspension to a 15 ml/50 ml conical sterile polypropylene centrifuge tube containing pre-warmed culture medium. Wash vial with an additional culture medium to collect remaining cells, and centrifuge at 201 × g (rcf) for 5 minutes at room temperature. 3. Resuspend the cell pellet in 5 ml pre-warmed culture medium and count cell number. Seed cells in an appropriate cell culture flask at a density of 2×104 cells/cm2. This should allow for confluency within 48 hours. 4. Incubate the culture at 37ºC incubator with 5% CO2. Cultures should be monitored daily. | 
| Subculture Guidelines | All seeding densities should be based on cell counts gained by established methods. A guide seeding density of 2x104 cells/cm2 is recommended for confluency (80-90% confluence) within 48 hours. A partial media change 24 hours prior to subculture may be helpful to encourage growth, if required. Cells should be passaged when they have achieved 80-90% confluence. | 
| Disease | Adenocarcinoma | 
| Gender | Female | 
| Description | Human wild-type HeLa cell line as the recommended control. | 
Target Info
| Target Function | Inhibitor of protein-phosphatase 1. | 
| Target Sequence Similarities | Belongs to the protein phosphatase inhibitor 2 family. | 
| Post-Translational Modifications | Phosphorylation on Thr-73 by GSK3 activates PP1 by dissociating the PP1-PPP1R2 complex (By similarity). Phosphorylation on Ser-44 by ATM activates PP1 by dissociating the PP1-PPP1R2 complex. |
