| Cell line: | COLO-849 |
| DSMZ no.: | ACC 216 |
| Species: | human (Homo sapiens) |
| Cell type: | melanoma |

| Reference(s): | 14788 |
| Biosafety level: | 1 |
| Permissions and restrictions: | A |
| | DSMZ Cell Culture Data: |
| Morphology: | fibroblastic cells growing mainly as adherent monolayer and partly in suspension; sedimented cells have a brown color (suggesting production of melanin); image; image; image |
| Medium: | 80-90% RPMI 1640 + 10-20% h.i. FBS |
| Subculture: | split confluent culture 1:4 to 1:10 every 4-7 days using trypsin/EDTA; seed out at ca. 2-3 x 106 cells/80 cm2 |
| Incubation: | at 37 °C with 5% CO2 |
| Doubling time: | ca. 50-60 hours |
| Harvest: | cell harvest of about 18 x 106 cells/175 cm2 |
| Storage: | frozen with 70% medium, 20% FBS, 10% DMSO |
| | DSMZ Scientific Data: |
| Mycoplasma: | negative in DAPI, microbiological culture, RNA hybridization, PCR assays |
| 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. |
| Cytogenetics: | human hypotriploid karyotype - 60<3n>X, -Y, -1, +3, -4, -5, +7, -10, -11, -12, -13, -14, -15, -16, -17, -18, +20, +22, der(1)t(1;?)(q11;?), i(3q), idic(3)(3cen->p24::1q11->qter), der(7)t(7;?)(q33;?)x2, der(9)t(9;?)(p11;?)/del(9)(p13) - the large idic(3) marker and i(3q) derive from an earlier translocation, t(1;3)(q11;p24), present in a sideline - idic marker clearly derives from published translocation |
| Molec. Genetics: | Genomic sequencing and/or ARMS assay show that the cell line carries the BRAF V600E mutation (mu/wt), but no NRAS Q61 mutation |
| Viruses: | ELISA: reverse transcriptase negative; PCR: EBV -, HBV -, HCV -, HHV-8 -, HIV-1 -, HIV-2 -, HTLV-1/2 -, MLV -, SMRV - |
