Cell Lines and Cell Cultures
ATCC Streptococcus oralis
Streptococcus oralis strain NCTC 11427 [PB182; LVG/1 (Group IA)] is a whole-genome sequenced type strain that was isolated from a human mouth.
ATCC OK; Kidney Proximal Tubule; Virginia opossum (Didelphis virginiana)
OK is an epithelial cell line that was isolated from the proximal tubule of an adult female opossum. This cell line was deposited by MM Miller.
ATCC HTR-8/SVneo; Trophoblast; Human (Homo sapiens)
HTR-8/SVneo is a trophoblast cell line that was isolated in 1992 from the placenta of a 6-to-12-week-old embryo. Cells were derived by transfecting the cells that grew out of chorinic villi explants of human first-trimester placenta with the gene encoding for simian virus 40 large T antigen. These cells exhibit a variety of markers characteristic of extravillous invasive trophoblast cells in situ: insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-II, NDOG-5, proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), human leukocyte antigen framework antigen (W6/32) and a distinct set of integrins including alpha 1, alpha 3, alpha 5, alpha v and beta 1 subunits and alpha v beta 3/beta 5 vitronectin receptor. They were negative formacrophage marker 63/D3, endothelial cell marker factor VIII and alpha 6 and beta 4 integrin subunits. HTR-8/SVneo cells are useful to study trophoblast and placental biology. This cell line was deposited by C Graham (Queen's University).
ATCC Trichoderma reesei
An ampoule containing viable cells (may include spores and mycelia) suspended in cryoprotectant.
ATCC Human adenovirus 2; Strain: Adenoid 6
Human adenovirus 2 strain Adenoid 6 is propagated in MRC-5 cells (ATCC CCL-171). This strain was isolated in 1953 from a 7-year-old human female with hypertrophied tonsils and adenoids and was deposited by NIH/NIAID. This product has applications in infectious and respiratory research.
ATCC Micrococcus luteus; Strain AmMS 533
Micrococcus luteus strain AmMS 533 is a clinical isolate that can be used as a quality control strain.
ATCC Measles virus RNA; Strain: Edmonston
Genomic RNA from the preparation of cell lysate and supernatant from MRC-5 cells (ATCC CCL-171) infected with the measles virus strain Edmonston (ATCC VR-24). This product was prepared using methods known to inactivate viruses. It is suitable for use in RT-PCR or other RNA-based procedures. Source organisms and host cells are also available through the ATCC Catalog.
ATCC Methylorubrum extorquens
Methylorubrum extorquens strain NCIB 9133 [D 355; AM1, R. Hugh 1924] is a whole-genome sequenced bacterial strain that produces glutamate dehydrogenase.
ATCC MA-104 Clone 1; Embryonic Kidney; African Green Monkey (Chlorocebus aethiops) (Grivet Monkey)
MA-104 Clone 1 is an epithelial cell from the kidney of an African green monkey.
ATCC SW 626; Ovarian Adenocarcinoma; Human (Homo sapiens)
SW 626 [SW-626, SW626] is a cell line exhibiting epithelial morphology that was isolated from the ovaries of a 46-year-old, White female patient with adenocarcinoma. This product has applications in cancer research.
ATCC T84; Colon Carcinoma; Human (Homo sapiens)
T84 is a transplantable human carcinoma cell line isolated from the lung metastasis of a 72-year-old, male, colon cancer patient.
ATCC Human coronavirus 229E; Strain: 229E
Human coronavirus 229E is propagated in MRC-5 cells (ATCC CCL-171). This strain was isolated from the nasal and throat swabs of a man with a mild upper respiratory illness. The strain has applications in respiratory disease research and does not result in hemolysis.
ATCC Aspergillus oryzae; NRRL 484
An ampoule containing viable cells (may include spores and mycelia) suspended in cryoprotectant.
ATCC Vero Kidney African Green Monkey (Chlorocebus aethiops) Grivet
The Vero cell line was initiated in 1962 from the kidney tissue derived from a normal, adult African green monkey. The cell line can be used in a variety of applications, including the detection of verotoxins, detection of virus in ground beef, efficacy testing, the study of malaria, media testing, and mycoplasma testing.
