  1. Abstract:

    Isogenic H/N/KRAS-less mouse embryonic fibroblast (MEF) cell lines have been developed to assist in cell-based assays of RAS inhibitors. The quality control assessment of a panel of these isogenic MEFs is described here, with a focus on ensuring the proper insertion of the desired mutant RAS transgene, a determination of gene copy number, and an investigation of potential off-target mutations which could lead to phenotypes which are undesired in downstream experiments. Using this suite of quality control tools, a MEF cell line can be readily validated, and researchers can be assured of the rationale for an observed phenotype. © 2024.
