General description
The YUMM1.7 mouse melanoma cell line was derived from a 4-hydroxytamoxifen-induced melanoma tumor in a male C57/B1/6 mouse into which mutations from the Braf/Pten genetically-engineered mouse model had been introduced via backcrossing. The YUMM1.7 cell line harbors the Braf V600E mutation and is homozygous negative for wild-type Pten and Cdkn2 (1).
The YUMM1.7 mouse melanoma cell line was developed as an immunocompetent cell line that recapitulates genetic drivers found in a significant proportion of human melanomas (1). YUMM1.7 cells are syngeneic with the immunocompetent C57/B1/6 mouse background and retain genetic markers of the Braf/Pten mouse model, characterized by activation of Braf and inactivation of Pten and Cdkn2a, in which melanoma tumors develop with short latency (2). YUMM1.7 cells are highly tumorigenic in vivo (1). The YUMM1.7 mouse melanoma cell line represents a valuable tool for tumor immunology and cancer biology, especially tractable for the evaluation and generation of new immunotherapies.

Application
Quality
- Each vial contains >=1X106 viable cells.
- Cells are tested negative for infectious diseases by a Human Essential CLEAR panel by Charles River Animal Diagnostic Services.
- Cells are verified to be of human origin and negative for inter-species contamination from rat, mouse, chinese hamster, Golden Syrian hamster, and non-human primate (NHP) as assessed by a Contamination CLEAR panel by Charles River Animal Diagnostic Services.
- Cells are negative for mycoplasma contamination.
- Each lot of cells is genotyped by STR analysis to verify the unique identity of the cell line.
