Organism Homo sapiens, human
Cell Type B lymphoblast
Product Format frozen
Morphology lymphoblast
Culture Properties suspension
Biosafety Level 2 Cells contain Eptein-Barr Viral DNA sequences
Applications
Since the HMy2.CIR cell line was derived from the HMy.
The CRL-1621cell line is reported to be positive for Epstein-Barr nuclear antigen (EBNA +) and Epstein-Barr viral capsid antigen (EBVCA +).
B lymphoblastoid cell line, a fast growing mutant of the ARH-77 cell line (ATCC CRL-1621), by gamma irradiation and selection for loss of HLA class I antigen expression.
The HMy2.CIR cell line was derived from the HMy.
The cells are useful as host for transfected class I major histocompatibility antigen genes.
Storage Conditions liquid nitrogen vapor phase
Derivation
The CRL-1621cell line is reported to be positive for Epstein-Barr nuclear antigen (EBNA +) and Epstein-Barr viral capsid antigen (EBVCA +). Since the HMy2.CIR cell line was derived from the HMy.2 B lymphoblastoid cell line, a fast growing mutant of the ARH-77 cell line (ATCC CRL-1621), it is assumed to be EBNA positive.
The HMy2.CIR cell line was derived from the HMy.2 B lymphoblastoid cell line, a fast growing mutant of the ARH-77 cell line (ATCC CRL-1621), by gamma irradiation and selection for loss of HLA class I antigen expression.
Comments

The HMy2.CIR cell line was derived from the HMy.2 B lymphoblastoid cell line, a fast growing mutant of the ARH-77 cell line (ATCC CRL-1621), by gamma irradiation and selection for loss of HLA class I antigen expression.
The cells express no HLA A or B locus products, but do express small amounts of HLA Cw4.
The cells are useful as host for transfected class I major histocompatibility antigen genes.
