Biosafety classification is based on U.S. Public Health Service Guidelines, it is the responsibility of the customer to ensure that their facilities comply with biosafety regulations for their own country.
This cell line can be used to study the role of FADD in apoptotic signaling pathways in the absence of overxpression.

ICR-191 treated clones were serially diluted in 96-well plates in the presence of Fas Antibody for 3 to 5 weeks. RefJuo P, et al. FADD is required for multiple signaling events downstream of the receptor Fas. Cell Growth Differ. 10: 797-804, 1999. PubMed: 10616904 Two of these ICR-191 treated clones have been deposited at the ATCC . They are I 9.2 (ATCC CRL-2571), a clone with a mutation in the cysteine protease caspase-8/FLICE and I 2.1 (ATCC CRL-2572), a clone with a mutation in the adaptor FADD.
Unlike the parental line A3 that does express FADD, the I 2.1 cell line does not express FADD protein by immunoblot analysis and is completely resistant to Fas-induced death. Complementation of the I 2.1 cell lines with wild-type FADD restores Fas-mediated apoptosis. Fas activation of caspase-2, caspase-3, caspase-7, and caspase-8 is completely defective in the FADD mutant cell line I 2.1. RefJuo P, et al.
