Cellosaurus LuSIV (CVCL_1H04)
| Cell line name | LuSIV |
|---|---|
| Accession | CVCL_1H04 |
| Resource Identification Initiative | To cite this cell line use: LuSIV (RRID:CVCL_1H04) |
| Comments | Characteristics: Transfected with a construct containing firefly luciferase under the control of the SIVmac239 LTR. Activation requires the viral transactivating protein Tat to drive expression of the luciferase reporter gene from the LTR (PubMed=10915601). Virology: Can be used for the quantitative measurement of HIV/SIV infection within a single replication cycle (PubMed=10915601). Genetic integration: Method=Transfection; Gene=UniProtKB; P00557; Escherichia coli hygromycin-B 4-O-kinase (hph) (HygR). Genetic integration: Method=Transfection; Gene=UniProtKB; P08659; Firefly luciferase. |
