Cell line: | MCF-7GFP |
DSMZ no.: | ACC 983 |
Species: | human (Homo sapiens) |
Cell type: | breast adenocarcinoma |
Origin: | established in 2009 from the original MCF-7 by transduction with lentiviral SIN vector expressing constitutively eGFP.
(MCF-7 was established in 1970 from the pleural effusion of a 69-year-old woman with metastatic mammary carcinoma after radio- and hormone therapy; available at DSMZ, ACC 115) |
Reference(s): | 40821, 40872 |
Biosafety level: | 1, GMO-S1 |
Risk assessment: | MCF-7 cells were transduced with the lentiviral SIN vector pRRL.PPT.SF.GFP.pre#. The transduction method is an approved third generation safety measure to prevent the formation of replication competent retroviruses. According to German legislation, the genetically modified cells are assigned to safety group S1. |
