Cellosaurus SWI3a-26 (CVCL_A5ZP)

[Text version]
Cell line name SWI3a-26
Accession CVCL_A5ZP
Resource Identification Initiative To cite this cell line use: SWI3a-26 (RRID:CVCL_A5ZP)
Comments Biotechnology: Cell line for recombinase mediated cassette exchange (RMCE) that was generated by random integration of a FRT-flanked GFP reporter. It contains a single copy of the GFP reporter transgene at a genetic locus that is protected from silencing. The integrated GFP cassette contains a selection trap that allows for selection of recombinant cells upon RMCE (PubMed=25804355).
Characteristics: Transduced with the pEFFS-EGFP-dneo vector that contains eGFP under the control of the EF1a promoter. The eGFP gene is flanked by a wild type FRT site and a synthetic variant (F3). A selection trap, an ATG-deleted, promoterless neo (Dneo) gene is located downstream of eGFP. When eGFP is exchanged by Flp-mediated recombination against a cassette including a promoter and start codon, Dneo becomes complemented and the cell becomes resistant against the antibiotic G418, thus allowing for selection of recombinant cells (PubMed=22174749).
Genetic integration: Method=Transduction; Gene=FPbase; R9NL8; eGFP (Note=Enhanced GFP).
