Descripción

Cell Line Origin

Renal cell carcinoma cell line RCC4 stably transfected with pcDNA3-VHL

Cell Line Description

Renal cell carcinoma cell line RCC4 stably transfected with pcDNA3-VHL. The plasmid pcDNA3-VHL confers neomycin resistance and encodes the von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) tumour suppressor gene product pVHL. The original renal carcinoma cell line RCC4 is VHL-deficient. The RCC4 plus vector alone cell line (Sigma catalogue no. 03112702) can serve as a negative control cell line to study the effect of pVHL expression from pcDNA3-VHL. These cells are less tumourigenic than corresponding cell lines lacking pVHL function.

Application

Study of tumour suppressor gene product function - von Hippel-Lindau tumour suppressor gene. Cell responses to hypoxia.
