Cell Line Description
A revertant line of the KHOS/NP cell line (Sigma Catalogue number. 84102903). Established after overnight incubation at 40.5°C and then sub-cloned at 36°C. The line has similar properties to the parent HOS cell line. Cells are non-tumourigenic in nude mice and no longer possess a rescuable MSV genome.
Application
Tumourigenicity, transformation, biochemical and virus studies: MSV
