Description	B-LCL-CDG7 is an EBV-transformed B lymphocyte cell line derived from a young boy with CDAII. CDAII is a rare genetic anaemia, affiliated to the class of CDG glycosylation disorders. CDAII patients have a defect in the COPII component SEC23B gene which is involved in the intracellular protein transport system (in particular vesicular budding from ER). The respective patient is homozygous for the mutation in this gene. Band 3 glycoprotein of erythrocyte membranes is under glycosylated by aberrant glycosylation of polylactosamine motifs of glycoproteins but not of glycosphingolipids, thus band 3 of CDA II erythrocytes have truncated hybrid-type oligosaccharides. This points to an additional defect in the Golgi glycosylation enzymes Beta-mannosidase II or Nacetylglucosaminyltransferase II.

Culture Medium	RPMI 1640, w: 2.0 mM stable Glutamine, w: 2.0 g/L NaHCO3 (Cytion article number 820700a)
Supplements	Supplement the medium with 10% heat-inactivated FBS
Subculturing	Maintain cultures by periodically adding or replacing the medium. Initiate cultures with a density of 2 x 10⁵ cells/ml and keep the cell concentration within the range of 1 x 10⁵ to 5 x 10⁵ cells/ml for optimal growth.
Fluid renewal	Once the medium colour turned into yellow
Post-Thaw Recovery	Medium
Freeze medium	As a cryopreservation medium, we use complete growth medium (including FBS) + 10% DMSO for adequate post-thaw viability, or CM-1 (Cytion catalog number 800100), which includes optimized osmoprotectants and metabolic stabilizers to enhance recovery and reduce cryo-induced stress.
Thawing and Culturing Cells	Confirm that the vial remains deeply frozen upon delivery, as cells are shipped on dry ice to maintain optimal temperatures during transit. Upon receipt, either store the cryovial immediately at temperatures below -150°C to ensure the preservation of cellular integrity, or proceed to step 3 if immediate culturing is required. For immediate culturing, swiftly thaw the vial by immersing it in a 37°C water bath with clean water and an antimicrobial agent, agitating gently for 40-60 seconds until a small ice clump remains. Perform all subsequent steps under sterile conditions in a flow hood, disinfecting the cryovial with 70% ethanol before opening. Carefully open the disinfected vial and transfer the cell suspension into a 15 ml centrifuge tube containing 8 ml of room-temperature culture medium, mixing gently. Centrifuge the mixture at 300 x g for 3 minutes to separate the cells and carefully discard the supernatant containing residual freezing medium. Gently resuspend the cell pellet in 10 ml of fresh culture medium. For adherent cells, divide the suspension between two T25 culture flasks; for suspension cultures, transfer all the medium into one T25 flask to promote effective cell interaction and growth. Adhere to established subculture protocols for continued growth and maintenance of the cell line, ensuring reliable experimental outcomes.
Incubation Atmosphere	37°C, 5% CO₂, humidified atmosphere.
Shipping Conditions	Cryopreserved cell lines are shipped on dry ice in validated, insulated packaging with sufficient refrigerant to maintain approximately −78 °C throughout transit. On receipt, inspect the container immediately and transfer vials without delay to appropriate storage.
Storage Conditions	For long-term preservation, place vials in vapor-phase liquid nitrogen at about −150 to −196 °C. Storage at −80 °C is acceptable only as a short interim step before transfer to liquid nitrogen.

Sterility	Mycoplasma contamination is excluded using both PCR-based assays and luminescence-based mycoplasma detection methods. To ensure there is no bacterial, fungal, or yeast contamination, cell cultures are subjected to daily visual inspections.
