Isolation
|
Contains a full-length genome of SV-40 strain CPC/MEN cloned into the EcoRI site of pUC-19. SV40-CPC/MEN was isolated and cloned from virus stock derived from choroid plexus carcinoma DNA sample 12 (from a 4 yr old child).

Comments
|
It has an archetypal viral regulatory region and was tested by lipofection of EcoRI-linearized plasmid DNA into TC7 cells, with cells showing subsequent production of typical SV-40 CPE. Lipofection into TC7 and Butel lab CV-1 cells was verified. Contains a full-length genome of SV-40 strain CPC/MEN cloned into the EcoRI site of pUC-19. SV40-CPC/MEN was isolated and cloned from virus stock derived from choroid plexus carcinoma DNA sample 12 (from a 4 yr old child).
