MBU-TS4
ACC 801
Cell line:
MBU-TS4
DSMZ no.:
ACC 801
Species:
human (Homo sapiens)
Cell type:
keratinocytes
Origin:
established in 2011 from primary keratinocytes of a neonatal foreskin; cells were transduced with retroviral vectors containing human telomerase, SV40 early region, and epitope-tagged mutated HRAS(V12) linked to IRES-driven GFP expression; MBU-TS4 is a xenograft-derived side line of MBU-T in Swiss nude mice
Reference(s):
Biosafety level:
2, GMO-S2
Risk assessment:
The primary keratinocyte cells were transduced with retroviral vectors containing a) human telomerase reverse transcriptase hTERT, b) SV40 early region, and c) constitutively active mutated HRASV12 genes for immortalization. Mutated HRAS exhibits strong oncogenic potential.
Depositor-specific restrictions:
Transfer to third parties needs to be negotiated with the depositor.
