Cellosaurus HeLa Luc/705 (CVCL_E7IX)

[Text version]
Cell line name HeLa Luc/705
Accession CVCL_E7IX
Resource Identification Initiative To cite this cell line use: HeLa Luc/705 (RRID:CVCL_E7IX)
Comments Population: African American.
Characteristics: Transfected with a construct containing a luciferase gene interrupted by a mutated human beta-globin intron 2, HBB IVS2-705. The mutation in the intron causes aberrant splicing of luciferase pre-mRNA, preventing translation of luciferase. However, treatment of the cells with a 2'-O-methyl-oligoribonucleotide targeted to the aberrant splice sites induces correct splicing, restoring luciferase activity (PubMed=9572837).
Genetic integration: Method=Transfection; Gene=UniProtKB; P00557; Escherichia coli hygromycin-B 4-O-kinase (hph) (HygR).
Genetic integration: Method=Transfection; Gene=UniProtKB; P08659; Firefly luciferase.
