HeLa, genetic modification, the hER alpha expression construct, Oestrogen-Responsive Element
Cell Line Description
HeLa9903 is a HeLa cell line stably transfected with two constructs: the hER alpha expression construct; a firefly luciferase reporter construct bearing Oestrogen-Responsive Element (ERE) driven by a mouse metallothionein (MT) promoter TATA element. HeLa9903 can be used to test for evaluation of chemicals based on OECD Test Guideline: The stably transformed human oestrogen receptor-alpha transcriptional; activation assay for detection of oestrogenic activity of chemicals.
DMEM + 2 mM Glutamine + 10% Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) + 16μg/ml Blasticidin S HCL + 800μg/ml G418.
