Cellosaurus PC-DR-LUC (CVCL_C0Q0)

[Text version]
Cell line name PC-DR-LUC
Accession CVCL_C0Q0
Resource Identification Initiative To cite this cell line use: PC-DR-LUC (RRID:CVCL_C0Q0)
Comments Biotechnology: Used in an assay that can be used to identify compounds that have thyromimetic or TH-antagonistic effects, and that could be useful for detecting thyroid-disrupting chemicals in environmental samples (PubMed=17532181).
Characteristics: Expression of luciferase is under the control of a promoter containing two thyroid hormone response elements (TREs) separated by four nucleotides (DR4) followed by a SV40 promoter (PubMed=17532181).
Genetic integration: Method=Transfection/transduction; Gene=CGNC; 155; THRA.
Genetic integration: Method=Transfection/transduction; Gene=UniProtKB; P08659; Firefly luciferase.
