Description
abm | CPS I and OTC Stable Expressing CHO (CHO-CPS45-22-OTC1-A19) Cell Line | T6178
Carbamoyl phosphate synthetase I (CPS I) and ornithine transcarbamoylase (OTC), key enzymes in the urea cycle, were introduced to CHO cells by transfection with calcium phosphate to enable permanent CPS I and OTC gene expression. This cell line is suitable for use in the study of the urea cycle. Expression of these enzymes results in decreased ammonium ion production, making these cells ideal for research regarding the affect of ammonia levels on cell growth and productivity.
