Cellosaurus WI-38/hTERT/GFP-RAF-ER (CVCL_N806)

[Text version]
Cell line name WI-38/hTERT/GFP-RAF-ER
Accession CVCL_N806
Resource Identification Initiative To cite this cell line use: WI-38/hTERT/GFP-RAF-ER (RRID:CVCL_N806)
Comments Part of: ENCODE project common cell types; tier 3.
Population: Caucasian; Swedish.
Characteristics: Transfected with a construct that is composed of EGFP at the N-terminus, the catalytic domain of RAF1 (with 340-DD-341) in the middle and the hormone-binding domain of ESR1 at the C-terminus. Protein kinase activity is activated by estrogen or analogs such as 4-hydroxy-tamoxifen.
Senescence: Cells can be senesced after exposure for 72 hours with 4-hydroxy-tamoxifen.
Transfected with: HGNC; 9829; RAF1 (catalytic domain with D-340 and D-341).
Transfected with: HGNC; 3467; ESR1 (hormone-binding domain).
Transfected with: HGNC; 11730; TERT.
Transfected with: UniProtKB; P42212; GFP (with p.Phe64Leu, p.Ser65Thr and p.His231Leu = EGFP).
Omics: H3K4me3 ChIP-seq epigenome analysis.
Derived from site: In situ; Fetal lung; UBERON=UBERON_0005597.
Cell type: Fibroblast of lung; CL=CL_0002553.
Species of origin Homo sapiens (Human) (NCBI Taxonomy: 9606)
