SPECIES: monkey, African green
TISSUE/ORGAN: kidney
DSMZ catalog code: ACC 60
Morphology: fibroblast-like cells growing as monolayers
TRANSFORMED BY: SV40
Description: African green monkey kidney derived from CV-1, a simian cell line (cercopithecus aethiops), by transformation with an origin-defective mutant of SV-40; cells were described to support the growth of SV-40 viruses; classified as risk category 1 according to the German Central Commission for Biological Safety (ZKBS) confirmed as of primate origin with IEF of LDH, MPI, NP, PEP B
