Cellosaurus MGC-803 (CVCL_5334)

[Text version]
Cell line name MGC-803
Synonyms MGC803; MGc80-3
Accession CVCL_5334
Resource Identification Initiative To cite this cell line use: MGC-803 (RRID:CVCL_5334)
Comments Problematic cell line: Contaminated. Seems to be an hybrid of HeLa and probably of a gastric cancer cell. The STR profile is highly similar to that of HeLa yet shows some specific differences that suggest it is an hybrid cell line (PubMed=37543987). Was originally thought to originate from a 53 year old male patient suffering from a poorly differentiated gastric mucinous adenocarcinoma.
Registration: International Cell Line Authentication Committee, Register of Misidentified Cell Lines; ICLAC-00588.
Doubling time: ~25 hours (CelloPub=CLPUB00751); 22.5 hours (PubMed=29683800).
Transformant: NCBI_TaxID; 333761; Human papillomavirus type 18 (HPV18).
Omics: Secretome proteome analysis by 2D-DE/MS.
Omics: SNP array analysis.
Omics: Transcriptome analysis by microarray.
Omics: Transcriptome analysis by RNAseq.
Miscellaneous: Formerly the CCRID database had 2 entries describing this cell line (3111C0001CCC000227, 3131C0001000700084). They were one of the sources for the STR profile of this entry.
Misspelling: BGC-803; Note=Occasionally.
Misspelling: BGC803; Note=Occasionally.
Misspelling: MCG803; GEO=GSM844588.
Species of origin Homo sapiens (Human) (NCBI Taxonomy: 9606)
