General Cell Lines and Cell Cultures
ATCC Bordetella pertussis; genomic DNA
Genomic DNA isolated from Bordetella pertussis strain Tohama 1 (ATCC BAA-589). This whole-genome sequenced product can be used in PCR and other molecular biology applications.
ATCC Chaetomium globosum; QM 459
An ampoule containing viable cells (may include spores and mycelia) suspended in cryoprotectant.
ATCC ChaGo-K-1; Bronchogenic Carcinoma; Human (Homo sapiens)
ChaGo-K-1 is an epithelial-like cell that was isolated from the bronchus of a male 45-year-old, with bronchogenic carcinoma. The cell line ChaGo-K-1 can be used in cancer research.
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 Streptococcus thermophilus
Streptococcus thermophilus strain NCDO 573 is a whole-genome sequenced bacterial type strain that was isolated from pasteurized milk. This strain produces aminopeptidase N and has applications in quality control.
ATCC CCRF-HSB-2; Lymphoblastic Leukemia; Human (Homo sapiens)
CCRF-SB cells are T lymphoblasts. They are derived from the same buffy coat preparation as CCL-120 (CCRF-SB) by serially transplanting into newborn Syrian hamsters. This cell line can be used in immune system disorder and immunology research.
ATCC EO771.lmb; Breast Carcinoma; Mouse (Mus musculus)
EO771.lmb is a cell line with epithelial-like morphology isolated in 2014 from the breasts of a mouse with ductal carcinoma. It can be used for analysis of genes that regulate metastasis of breast cancer and/or drugs that might reduce spontaneous metastasis in immune competent C57Bl/6 mice. It was isolated by R Anderson, Translational Breast Cancer Research Program, Olivia Newton-John Cancer Research.
ATCC CHO_INSR_1284; Ovary; Chinese Hamster (Cricetulus griseus)
CHO INSR 1284 is a cell line that was isolated in 2008 from the ovary of a female Chinese hamster. Flp-In Cells (CHO-K1) cells were transfected with the gene for human insulin recepor B (M10051, NCBI GenBank), inserted in the basic vector pCDNA5-FRT-TO (cat.V6520-20 from Invitrogen) These cells can be used to investigate metabolic and mitogenic signaling of insulin metabolism and its metabolites. This cell line was deposited by S Ruggeber.
ATCC Mycoplasma Testing Service: PCR-based
FTA Sample Collection Kit for PCR-based Mycoplasma Detection Service combines easy-to-use Whatman FTA sample collection cards with ATCC's best-selling Universal Mycoplasma Detection Kit (ATCC 30-1012K). This kit can quickly and reliably identify over 60 species of Mycoplasma, Acholeplasma, Spiroplasma, and Ureaplasma, including the top eight species most likely to affect cell cultures: M. arginini, M. fermentans, M. hominis, M. hyorhinis, M. orale, M. pirum, M. salivarium, and A. laidlawii. The sample kit is mailed upon purchase. Whatman and FTA are trademarks of the General Electric Company.
ATCC Human herpesvirus 3;Strain: Oka;Varicella zoster virus
Human herpesvirus 3 strain Oka is propagated in MRC-5 cells (ATCC CCL-171). This strain was isolated from a vesicle from a 3-year-old male in Japan and was deposited by the Research Foundation for Microbial Diseases of Osaka University. It has applications in infectious disease research, assay development, and vaccine development.
ATCC Genomic RNA from SARS-CoV-2; Variant B.1.351; Strain: USA/MD-HP01542/2021
Genomic RNA isolated from a preparation of Severe acute respiratory syndrome-related coronavirus 2 isolate USA/MD-HP01542/2021. This product can be used in assay development, verification, and validation as well as monitoring of day-to-day test variation and lot-to-lot performance of molecular-based assays.
