Relevance | Somatic knock-in reporter cell line with endogenous expression of Mad2 fused to the yellow fluorescent protein Venus (Venus-Mad2 fusion protein). Different cyclins exhibit distinct expression and degradation patterns which contribute to the temporal coordination of each mitotic event. This cell line functions as a cell cycle reporter across the metaphase-to-anaphase transition of the cell cycle. See also the Cyclin A2 and Cyclin B1 versions of these cell lines for a broader analysis of the different phases of the cell cycle. This cell line is an endogenous reporter for Mad2 levels and activity. |
Production Details | To generate the cell line recombinant adenovirus-associated virus (rAVV)-mediated gene targeting was used to fuse the yellow fluorescent protein (Venus) ORF to the 5' of exon 1 of one allele of the MAD2L1 gene. The Mad2 was tagged at its N-terminus because a GFP-Mad2 fusion protein had previously been demonstrated to be functional in Drosophila. |

The spindle assembly checkpoint works like a rheostat rather than a toggle switch.
