Cell line: | CRO-AP5 |
DSMZ no.: | ACC 215 |
Species: | human (Homo sapiens) |
Cell type: | B cell lymphoma |
Origin: | established in 1998 from the pleural effusion of a 35-year-old man with primary effusion lymphoma (PEL) and a history of Kaposi's sarcoma; cells are HHV-8-positive, but HIV-negative. Exome and RNA sequence data are available (see Ref 18187 and Exome sequence and RNA-Seq) |
Reference(s): | 14418, 15032, 14483, 18187 |
Biosafety level: | 2 |
Risk assessment: | The cell line carries HHV-8 sequences which were detected by PCR and Southern blot. We did not determine the infection mode of this herpes virus and cannot exclude the secretion of the viruses. The cell line is thus categorized biosafety level 2. |
Permissions and restrictions: | A, B |
