| Cell line: | I83-LCL |
| DSMZ no.: | ACC 764 |
| Species: | human (Homo sapiens) |
| Cell type: | B lymphoblastoid cells (from patient with chronic B cell leukemia) |
| Origin: | normal B-cell derived lymphoblastoid cell line established in 1994 from a 71-year-old man with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL); autologous to cell line I83-E95 (DSM ACC 763) |
| Reference(s): | 19334, 19172 |
| Biosafety level: | 1 |
| Risk assessment: | The cell line is positive for EBV (HHV-4) by PCR analysis. However, expression of immediate-early protein BZLF-1 was negative by western blot in untreated and phorbol ester / sodium butyrate stimulated cells. The infection was classified as latent infection without production of active viruses. A transmission of EBV during handling of the cells is unlikely and thus the cell line is categorized biosafety level 1.
According to a recommendation of the German Central Committee for Biological Safety (ZKBS) the cells have to be handled under biosafety level 2 when the cells are used in genetic engineering projects. |
