Cellosaurus CHO-K1 Ed-B8 (CVCL_YD19)

[Text version]
Cell line name CHO-K1 Ed-B8
Synonyms Ed-B8
Accession CVCL_YD19
Resource Identification Initiative To cite this cell line use: CHO-K1 Ed-B8 (RRID:CVCL_YD19)
Comments Characteristics: Has reduced Na+-dependent glutamate transport activity. Have an increased permeability to small neutral molecules.
Characteristics: Selection is effected by tritium suicide selection. Mutagenized cells are bathed in tritiated D-aspartate and stored so as to allow time for cells that had taken up the D-aspartate to be killed by radiation damage.
Selected for resistance to: NCIt; C165595; Tritium beta radiation.
Transformant: ChEBI; CHEBI:23994; Ethyl methanesulfonate (Methylsulfonic acid ethyl ester; MSEE).
Derived from site: In situ; Ovary; UBERON=UBERON_0000992.
Cell type: Epithelial cell of ovary; CL=CL_2000064.
Species of origin Cricetulus griseus (Chinese hamster) (Cricetulus barabensis griseus) (NCBI Taxonomy: 10029)
Hierarchy Parent: CVCL_0214 (CHO-K1)
Sex of cell Female
Age at sampling Adult
