U-266
ACC 9
Cell line:
U-266
DSMZ no.:
ACC 9
Species:
human (Homo sapiens)
Cell type:
multiple myeloma
Origin:
established from the peripheral blood of a 53-year-old man with IgE-secreting myeloma (refractory, terminal) in 1968; cells were described in the literature to produce IgE lambda; possible fusion partner for hybridoma production; cells express mRNA for BCL2 gene. Exome and RNA sequence data are available (see Ref 18187 and Exome sequence and RNA-Seq)
Biosafety level:
1
Permissions and restrictions:

saturation density at 1.0-1.5 x 106 cells/ml
Storage:
frozen with 70% medium, 20% FBS, 10% DMSO
DSMZ Scientific Data:
Mycoplasma:
initial contamination was eliminated with Ciprobay (ciprofloxacin), then negative in DAPI, microbiological culture, and continuously in PCR assays
