Cellosaurus SW979 (CVCL_4057)

[Text version]
Cell line name SW979
Synonyms SW-979; SW 979
Accession CVCL_4057
Resource Identification Initiative To cite this cell line use: SW979 (RRID:CVCL_4057)
Comments Problematic cell line: Possibly misidentified/contaminated. Reported by PubMed=11787853 to contain the same HPV18 sequences as the cervix carcinoma cell line C-4-I (Cellosaurus=CVCL_2253) and to lack mutations in KRAS, TP53, CDKN2 and DPC4 often found in pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
From: Scott and White Clinic; Temple; USA.
