Cellosaurus Applied StemCell DR4-MEF irradiated (CVCL_E8D2)

[Text version]
Cell line name Applied StemCell DR4-MEF irradiated
Accession CVCL_E8D2
Resource Identification Initiative To cite this cell line use: Applied StemCell DR4-MEF irradiated (RRID:CVCL_E8D2)
Comments Characteristics: Expresses transgenes that make this cell line resistant to three different drugs: geneticin (G418), puromycin and hygromycin. KO of Hprt1 makes the cell line resistant to 6-tioguanine (PubMed=9278500).
Characteristics: Used as feeder cells to support the growth of stem cells in the undifferentiated state.
Characteristics: Growth-arrested by irradiation.
