Green Fluorescent SK-BR-3 Cell Line

Green Fluorescent SK-BR-3 Cell Line (aka LINTERNA SK-BR-3) has been developed through stable transfection of SK-BR-3 cell line with tGFP. This cell line expresses green fluorescent protein gene sequences as free cytoplasmatic proteins. Each vial of cells contains more than 3 million viable cells stably expressing tGFP with G418 resistance gene:

LINTERNA SK-BR-3 Cell line is ready to use in cell-based assay applications. This stably transfected clonal cell line provides consistent levels of expression, which helps simplify the interpretation of results. Green Fluorescent SK-BR-3 Cell Line also allows to stablish in vitro models for HIgh Throughput and High Content Screening.

Green Fluorescent SK-BR-3 Cell Line are suitable for both, in vitro and in vivo experimentation.

About SK-BR-3 Cell line:

SK-BR-3 is a human breast cancer cell line that overexpresses the Her2 (Neu/ErbB-2) gene product. These cells display an epithelial morphology in tissue culture and are also capable of forming poorly differentiated tumors in immunocompromised mice. The SK-BR-3 cells and products derived from it are used often as positive controls in assays for Her2. In addition, the cell line is also a useful preclinical model to screen for therapeutic agents targeting Her2 and to delineate mechanisms of resistance to Her2-targeted therapies.

About turboGFP protein:

tGFP is an improved variant of the green fluorescent protein CopGFP from copepoda Pontellina plumata (Arthropoda; Crustacea; Maxillopoda; Copepoda). It possesses bright green fluorescence (excitation/ emission max = 482/ 502 nm) that is visible earlier than fluorescence of other green fluorescent proteins. TurboGFP is useful for applications where fast appearance of bright fluorescence is crucial. It is also useful for cell and organelle labeling and tracking the promoter activity.
