Comments: Mitochondrial fusion plays an important role in controlling the morphology and function of mitochondria. In mammalian cells, the dynamin-related GTPase OPA1 is essential for mitochondrial fusion. OPA1 is associated with the inner membranes and protects the cells from apoptosis by regulating inner membrane dynamics.OPA1-null MEFs细胞 Mutation of OPA1 leads to degeneration of the retinal ganglion cells that causes dominant optic atrophy. OPA1-null cells have been developed as a cellular system to study how individual OPA1 splice forms contribute to mitochondrial fusion.

Propagation: ATCC complete growth medium: The base medium for this cell line is ATCC-formulated Dulbeccos Modified Eagles Medium, Catalog No. 30-2002. To make the complete growth medium, add the following components to the base medium: fetal bovine serum to a final concentration of 10%.
Temperature: 37.0°C
Atmosphere: air, 95%; carbon dioxide (CO2), 5%
Subculturing: Protocol: Volumes used in this protocol are for 75 sq. cm. flasks; proportionally reduce or increase amount of dissociation medium for culture vessels of other sizes.
Remove and discard culture medium.
Briefly rinse the cell layer with Ca++/Mg++ free Dulbeccos phosphate-buffered saline (D-PBS) or 0.25% (w/v) Trypsin - 0.53 mM EDTA solution to remove all traces of serum which contains trypsin inhibitor.
Add 2.0 to 3.0 ml of Trypsin-EDTA solution to flask and observe cells under an inverted microscope until cell layer is dispersed (usually within 5 to 15 minutes).
Note: To avoid clumping do not agitate the cells by hitting or shaking the flask while waiting for the cells to detach. Cells that are difficult to detach may be placed at 37.0°C to facilitate dispersal.
Add 6.0 to 8.0 ml of complete growth medium and aspirate cells by gently pipetting.
Add appropriate aliquots of the cell suspension to new culture vessels.
Incubate cultures at 37.0°C.

Subcultivation ratio: OPA1-null MEFs细胞A subcultivation ratio of 1:5 to 1:20 is recommended. 

Medium renewal: Every 2 to 3 days
