Description

CHO-K1 cells expressing human delta like canonical Notch ligand 3 (DLL3) gene (accession number NM_016941.3) under the control of the cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoter. This cell line was generated by lentiviral transduction followed by puromycin selection and limited dilution. Individual clones were screened based on DLL3 expression to obtain this high-expressing cell line.

Purchase of this cell line is for research purposes only; commercial use requires a separate license. View the full terms and conditions.

Background

DLL3, also known as delta like ligand three, is a Notch ligand characterized by a DSL domain, transmembrane region, and a series of EGF repeats. Notch ligands can participate in trans-interactions (interaction with Notch receptor on a different cell) and cis interactions (interaction with Notch receptor within the same cell) to activate or inhibit Notch signaling, respectively. DLL3 exclusively functions to inhibit Notch signaling through cis inhibition. While DLL3 expression is limited in healthy tissue, high expression levels of DLL3 are found in various cancers including small cell lung cancer (SCLC), where it plays an oncogenic role. Relieving DLL3-mediated inhibition of Notch signaling may serve as a therapeutic avenue, with drugs being developed to target DLL3 as a possible lung cancer therapy (example: rovalpituzumab tesirine).
