Cellosaurus TH7 (CVCL_5J52)

[Text version]
Cell line name TH7
Accession CVCL_5J52
Resource Identification Initiative To cite this cell line use: TH7 (RRID:CVCL_5J52)
Comments Group: Patented cell line.
Characteristics: Reversible immortalized. The transduced hTERT and SV40 Tag genes are flanked by loxP sites. Transient Cre expression in this cell line leads to deletion of the two genes thus leading to a decrease in the rate of cell proliferation and ultimately to cell senescence (PubMed=15208689).
Doubling time: 40-48 hours (PubMed=15208689).
Genetic integration: Method=Transduction; Gene=HGNC; HGNC:11730; TERT.
Genetic integration: Method=Transduction; Gene=UniProtKB; P00552; Klebsiella pneumoniae transposon Tn5 neo.
Genetic integration: Method=Transduction; Gene=UniProtKB; P03070; Simian virus 40 (SV40) large T antigen.
Transformant: NCBI_TaxID; 1891767; Simian virus 40 (SV40).
Derived from site: In situ; Kidney, proximal tubule; UBERON=UBERON_0004134.
Cell type: Epithelial cell of proximal tubule; CL=CL_0002306.
Species of origin Homo sapiens (Human) (NCBI Taxonomy: 9606)
Originate from same individual CVCL_5J51 ! TH1
Sex of cell Sex unspecified
