To create the stable LifeAct-TagGFP2 expressing cell line, human fibrosarcoma cells were stably transfected with a plasmid coding for TagGFP2-labeled LifeAct .

The HT-1080 LifeAct-TagGFP2 cells present highly dynamic filamentous actin. As a result of stable LifeAct expression, perfect visualization of filamentous actin with very low background fluorescence is achieved without any interference to cellular dynamics. Moreover, full characterization of the cells revealed that they displayed identical behavior to wild type (wt) cells.

Due to the cell line’s fast growth and the absence of contact inhibition, it constitutes an ideal tumor model. These characteristics combined with bright and specific F-actin staining lead to a powerful tool with versatile applications in live cell imaging and high-content approaches.
