| Cell line: | DT-40 |
| DSMZ no.: | ACC 636 |
| Species: | chicken (Gallus gallus) |
| Cell type: | B cell line |
| Origin: | established in 1985 from a bursal lymphoma, which was induced by infection of a 1 day old chicken with Rous-associated virus type 1 (RAV-1), an avian leukosis retrovirus carrying no cell-derived oncogene; cells are described in the literature to retain the ability to rearrange the immunoglobulin light chain gene (IgL) and to exhibit a high frequency of homologous gene targeting |
