Comments
Ultrastructural features include many microvilli, prominent nucleoli, sparse RER, well developed Golgi.

The retinoblastoma protein (pRB) is present but abnormal in size.
P53 expression is elevated and there is a point mutation at codon 245 resulting in a Gly -> Val substitution

The line is negative for human papillomavirus DNA and RNA. No virus particles were observed.

A mycoplasma contamination was detected and eliminated in 1965.
Complete Growth Medium The base medium for this cell line is ATCC-formulated McCoy's 5a Medium Modified, Catalog No. 30-2007. To make the complete growth medium, add the following components to the base medium: fetal bovine serum to a final concentration of 10%.
Subculturing
Remove medium, rinse with fresh 0.25% trypsin-0.53 mM EDTA solution, remove trypsin and let the culture sit at room temperature (or at 37°C) until the cells detach (about 10 minutes). Add fresh medium, aspirate and dispense into new flasks.
Subcultivation Ratio: A subcultivation ratio of 1:2 to 1:5 is recommended
Medium Renewal: 2 to 3 times per week
Cryopreservation
Freeze medium: Complete growth medium, 95%; DMSO, 5%
Storage temperature: liquid nitrogen vapor phase
Culture Conditions
Temperature: 37°C
