HEK293-DR-GFP-XRCC2-13/X2+
ACC 853
Cell line:
HEK293-DR-GFP-XRCC2-13/X2+
DSMZ no.:
ACC 853
Species:
human (Homo sapiens)
Cell type:
embryonal kidney
Origin:
Genetic modification of HEK293-DR-GFP-XRCC2-13 (DSMZ ACC 848) which belongs to a series of genetically disrupted RAD51 paralogs. Here, in ACC 853, the XRCC2 gene is functionally reconstituted by retroviral transfection. Cells are described in the literature to be puromycin and hygromycin resistant
Biosafety level:
1, GMO-S1
Risk assessment:
genetically modified organism, according to German and European legislation allocated into group S1
Depositor-specific restrictions:
Transfer to third parties needs to be negotiated with the depositor.
DSMZ Cell Culture Data:
Medium:
90% DMEM + 10% h.i. FBS + (additionally) 2 mM L-glutamine (to sustain genetic stability cells should be maintained, at least periodically, with 0.5 µg/ml puromycin and/or 100 µg/ml hygromycin)
Subculture:
culture vessels should be coated with 0.01% poly-L-lysine solution; seed out at 1 x 106 cells/80 cm2; split 1:5 to 1:10 once or twice a week using TrypleExpress (trypsin/EDTA may not be efficient)
Incubation:
at 37 °C with 5% CO2
Doubling time:
ca. 40 hours
Harvest:
cell harvest of ca. 20 x 106 cells/80 cm2 flask
Storage:
frozen with 70% medium, 20% FBS, 10% DMSO
DSMZ Scientific Data:
Mycoplasma:
negative in PCR assay
Immunology:
to inquire about expression of EpCAM and intermediate filaments, contact ulfert.rand@dsmz.de.
Authenticity:
STR analysis according to the global standard ANSI/ATCC ASN-0002.1-2021 (2021) resulted in an authentic STR profile of the reference STR database.
Molec. Genetics:
frameshift mutation in exon 3 of XRCC2 was verified by sequence analysis and forced expression of XRCC2 in the retrovirally transfected cell line was confirmed by RQ-PCR analysis
Viruses:
PCR: EBV -, HBV -, HCV -, HIV-1 -, HIV-2 -, HTLV1/2 -, MLV -
