PT67 is a retrovirus packaging cell line derived from TK- NIH/3T3 cells. The cells produce replication-defective retroviral vector particles capable of binding to the gibbon ape leukemia virus receptor Glvr-1 (Pit-1) or the amphotropic retrovirus receptor Ram-1 (Pit-2) on target cells. [32364]
Propagation:
ATCC complete growth medium: The base medium for this cell line is ATCC-formulated Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium, Catalog No. 30-2002. To make the complete growth medium, add the following components to the base medium: fetal bovine serum to a final concentration of 10%. Temperature: 37.0°C Atmosphere: air, 95%; carbon dioxide (CO2), 5%
Subculturing:
Subc*tion Ratio: A subc*tion ratio of 1:4 to 1:12 is recommended Medium Renewal: Every 2 to 3 days Remove medium, and rinse with 0.25% trypsin, 0.03% EDTA solution. Remove the solution and add an additional 1 to 2 ml of trypsin-EDTA solution. Allow the flask to sit at room temperature (or at 37C) until the cells detach. Add fresh culture medium, aspirate and dispense into new culture flasks.
Preservation:
culture medium 95%; DMSO, 5%
