CA-MEK5 Stably Expressing HCT116 Cell Line | T6444

CA-MEK5 Stably Expressing HCT116 Cell Line | T6444

HCT116 cells were transduced with lentiviral particles carrying pWPI-eGFP expression constructs encoding CA-MEK5 (MEK5DD), followed by fluorescence-activated cell sorting to generate CA-MEK5 Stably Expressing HCT116 Cell Line. Mitogen/extracellular signal-regulated kinase kinase-5, MEK5, has been associated with tumor carcinogenesis, such as aberrant MEK5–ERK5 pathway signaling have been reported in cancer metastasis. CA-MEK5 Stably Expressing HCT116 Cell Line may be a useful tool to study cancer biology and it's role in cancer invasion and metastasis.
