Cellosaurus TWNT-4 (CVCL_W296)
Cell line name | TWNT-4 |
---|---|
Synonyms | TWNT4 |
Accession | CVCL_W296 |
Resource Identification Initiative | To cite this cell line use: TWNT-4 (RRID:CVCL_W296) |
Comments | Population: Japanese. Characteristics: Because it has been transduced by a construct containing LoxP sites, transfection with the Cre recombinase eliminates the TERT gene thus reverting the cells to a non-immortal phenotype. Characteristics: Transduced with a retroviral vector SSR#197 (MoMLV/LTR-LoxP-hTERT-IRES-EGFP-LoxP-MoMLV/LTR) expressing hTERT and eGFP flanked by a pair of loxP sites. Transfected with: HGNC; 11730; TERT. Transfected with: UniProtKB; P42212; GFP. Derived from site: In situ; Liver; UBERON=UBERON_0002107. Cell type: Hepatic stellate cell; CL=CL_0000632. |
