Cellosaurus PER.C6 TetR (CVCL_A7ME)
| Cell line name | PER.C6 TetR |
|---|---|
| Accession | CVCL_A7ME |
| Resource Identification Initiative | To cite this cell line use: PER.C6 TetR (RRID:CVCL_A7ME) |
| Comments | Group: Vaccine production cell line. From: Johnson & Johnson Janssen; Beerse; Belgium. Biotechnology: Used for the production of the Janssen SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) vaccine (Trade name: Ad26.COV2.S) (DrugBank; DB15857). In the context of the vaccine production, the tetR repressor blocks the expression of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein gene during production of the recombinant adenoviral vector, thereby optimising vector production. Transfected with: UniProtKB; P04483; Escherichia coli Tn10 tetR. Transformant: NCBI_TaxID; 28285; Adenovirus 5 [E1]. Derived from sampling site: Fetal eye; retina. Cell type=Retinoblast. |
