Atg7 Knockout Immortalized Mouse Kidney Epithelial Cell Line | T3028

abm | Atg7 Knockout Immortalized Mouse Kidney Epithelial Cell Line | T3028

Autophagy is a catabolic process in which proteins and cellular organelles are degraded under metabolic stress through the lysosomal pathway. Essential autophagy-related genes (i.e. Atg 5 and Atg 7) play an important role in mammalian development, survival and maintaining metabolism and homeostasis. The Atg7 Knockdown Immortalized Mouse Kidney Epithelial Cells (Atg7^-/- iBMK) is derived from stable transformation of E1A and p53DD into primary kidney epithelial cells from mice deficient for Atg7. Together with the wild-type iBMK
