Applications
This cell line produces the amphotropic retrovirus LXSN16E6E7 which encodes the HPV16 E6 and E7 open reading frames, and which can be used to stably infect and immortalize many cell types.
Storage Conditions liquid nitrogen vapor phase
Derivation
PA317 LXSN 16E6E7 is a packaging cell line developed by transfection of the retrovirus vector pLXSN16E6E7 into the Psi-2 ecotropic packaging cell line.
Virions produced from the transfected Psi-2 cells were used to infect the amphotropic packaging line PA317, and infected cells were selected in medium containing G418.
Comments
The pLXSN16E6E7 vector contains the human papilloma virus (HPV) type 16 E6 and E7 genes under control of the Moloney murine leukemia virus (MoMuLV) promoter-enhancer sequences.
The vector also contains a gene controlling resistance to neomycin transcribed from the SV40 promoter.
Complete Growth Medium The base medium for this cell line is ATCC-formulated Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium, Catalog No. 30-2002. To make the complete growth medium, add the following components to the base medium: fetal bovine serum to a final concentration of 10%.
Subculturing
Protocol:
  1. Remove and discard culture medium.
  2. Briefly rinse the cell layer with 0.25% (w/v) Trypsin- 0.53 mM EDTA solution to remove all traces of serum that contains trypsin inhibitor.
  3. Add 2.0 to 3.0 mL of Trypsin-EDTA solution to flask and observe cells under an inverted microscope until cell layer is dispersed (usually within 5 to 15 minutes).
    Note: To avoid clumping do not agitate the cells by hitting or shaking the flask while waiting for the cells to detach. Cells that are difficult to detach may be placed at 37°C to facilitate dispersal.
  4. Add 6.0 to 8.0 mL of complete growth medium and aspirate cells by gently pipetting.
  5. Add appropriate aliquots of the cell suspension to new culture vessels.
  6. Incubate cultures at 37°C.
    Subcultivation Ratio: A subcultivation ratio of 1:6 to 1:12 is recommended
    Medium Renewal: Every 2 to 3 days
    Cryopreservation
    Freeze medium: Complete growth medium supplemented with 5% (v/v) DMSO
    Storage temperature: liquid nitrogen vapor phase
    Culture Conditions
    Temperature: 37.0°C
    Name of Depositor DA Galloway
