Cellosaurus 293-hMyD88 (CVCL_A8CD)
| Cell line name | 293-hMyD88 |
|---|---|
| Accession | CVCL_A8CD |
| Resource Identification Initiative | To cite this cell line use: 293-hMyD88 (RRID:CVCL_A8CD) |
| Comments | Group: SARS-CoV-2 research cell line. Characteristics: Designed to study SARS-CoV-2-host cell fusion. Upon transient transfection, with a spike expression plasmid, these cells become a SARS-CoV-2 mimic, which can then fuse with permissive reporter cells (InvivoGen=293-hmyd). Genetic integration: Method=Transfection; Gene=HGNC; HGNC:7562; MYD88 (Note=With p.Leu252Pro (c.755T>C)). Genetic integration: Method=Transfection; Gene=UniProtKB; P13249; Streptomyces alboniger pac (PuroR). Transformant: NCBI_TaxID; 28285; Human adenovirus C serotype 5. Derived from site: In situ; Fetal kidney; UBERON=UBERON_0002113. |
