Cellosaurus 2fTGH-U2A (CVCL_M019)

[Text version]
Cell line name 2fTGH-U2A
Synonyms U2A; U2
Accession CVCL_M019
Resource Identification Initiative To cite this cell line use: 2fTGH-U2A (RRID:CVCL_M019)
Comments Population: Caucasian.
Characteristics: Unresponsive to alpha and beta interferons. Partially defective in response to interferon-gamma (PubMed=1906577).
Characteristics: 2fTGH was derived from a HPRT negative subline of HT-1080. Expression of gpt is under the control of a IFN-alpha inducible IFI6 (6-16) promoter and is thus only expressed when IFN-alpha is present in the growth medium.
Genetic integration: Method=Transfection/transduction; Gene=UniProtKB; P0A9M5; Escherichia coli gpt.
Genetic integration: Method=Transfection/transduction; Gene=UniProtKB; P00557; Escherichia coli hygromycin-B 4-O-kinase (hph) (HygR).
Transformant: ChEBI; CHEBI:132982; Acridine half-mustard dihydrochloride (6-chloro-9-[3-(2-chloroethylamino)propylamino]-2-methoxyacridine dihydrochloride; Acridine mutagen ICR 191).
Derived from site: In situ; Bone, pelvis, acetabulum; UBERON=UBERON_0001269.
