COLO-720L
ACC 206
Cell line:
COLO-720L
DSMZ no.:
ACC 206
Species:
human (Homo sapiens)
Cell type:
B lymphoblastoid cells (from patient with adenocarcinoma)
Origin:
B-lymphoblastoid cell line established from the peripheral blood of a 73-year-old woman with metastatic adenocarcinoma in 1988
Reference(s):
Biosafety level:
1
Risk assessment:
The cell line is positive for EBV (HHV-4) by PCR analysis. However, expression of immediate-early protein BZLF-1 and lately expressed capsid protein were negative by western blot and immunostaining, respectively, in untreated and phorbol ester / sodium butyrate stimulated cells. The infection was classified as latent infection without production of active viruses. A transmission of EBV during handling of the cells is unlikely and thus the cell line is categorized biosafety level 1. According to a recommendation of the German Central Committee for Biological Safety (ZKBS) the cells have to be handled under biosafety level 2 when the cells are used in genetic engineering projects.
