Quantity 10 µg
Quantitation Method Please see our FAQ
Cell Type Fibroblast
Transformant Untransformed
Sample Source DNA from Fibroblast
Relation to Proband proband
Confirmation Molecular characterization before cell line submission to CCR
Species Homo sapiens
Common Name Human
Remarks Clinically affected; fibroblasts showed 127 pmol CE/mg protein/6 hr activity in a cholesterol esterification assay [normal mean was 1855 +/- 1327 pmol CE/mg protein/6 hr, see Park et al. Hum Mut 22:313-325 (2003)]; fibroblasts were scored as npc-like in a filipin staining assay (see Park et al., 2003); a complementation test showed that the cells were type 1 (see Park et al., 2003); the donor subject is a compound heterozygote at the NPC1 gene locus: allele 1 carries a substitution (A>G) at nucleotide 3467 (c.3467A>G) in exon 22, resulting in a missense mutation at codon 1156 [N1156S (ASN1156SER)]; allele 2 carries a substitution (A>G) at nucleotide 3557 (c.3557A>G) in exon 23, resulting in a missense mutation at codon 1186 [R1186H(ARG1186HIS)]; the first nucleotide of the initiating MET codon is numbered +1. This fibroblast is a characteristically poor grower and will only be shipped frozen; requires particular care during growth; the recommended seeding density is 15,000 to 20,000 cells per cm2.

PDL at Freeze 4.92
Passage Frozen 20
 
IDENTIFICATION OF SPECIES OF ORIGIN Species of Origin Confirmed by Nucleoside Phosphorylase,Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase, and Lactate Dehydrogenase Isoenzyme Electrophoresis
 
Gene NPC1
Chromosomal Location 18q11-q12
Allelic Variant 1 607623.0003; NIEMANN-PICK DISEASE, TYPE C1
Identified Mutation ASN1156SER; In each of 2 unrelated NPC disease patients, Carstea et al. (1997) found compound heterozygosity at the NPC1 locus with one of the mutations being a 3467A-G transition, resulting in an asn1156-to-ser amino acid substitution in the NPC1 protein. The authors noted that asn1156 is conserved in human, mouse, C. elegans, and S. cerevisiae orthologs of NPC1.
