Tool Details
- Tool name: MCF7 ZsGreen-ZNF703 Lenti-control Cell Line
- Tool type: Cell Lines
- Tool sub-type: Continuous
- Parental cell line: MCF7
- Organism: Human
- Tissue: Breast
- Disease: Cancer
- Model: Tumour line
- Conditional: No
- Description: The MCF7 breast cancer human cell line infected with a control lentivirus (lenti-control) with no gene of interest. ZNF703 drives the exprsesion of the green fluorescent protein ZsGreen. This cell line serves as the negative control for the the MCF7-ZsGreen-ZNF703 overexpressing cell line (see Related tab).
- Research area: Cancer
- For Research Use Only
Target Details
- Target: Negative control for Zinc Finger Protein 703 (ZNF703) (UniProt ID: Q9H7S9)
Application Details
- Application notes: The pHIV-Zsgreen plasmid was cloned by removing the U6-TATAlox-CMVie-EGFP-TATAlox-WPRE content of the pSICO plasmid (Ventura et al., 2004). ZsGreen is used as a reporter for ZNF703.
