293t ace2
The 293T-ACE2 is a cell line that expresses the human Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor, which is known to be the primary receptor for the SARS-CoV-2 virus. This cell line is commonly used in research applications to study virus-host interactions, vaccine development, and antiviral drug screening.

ATCC CCL-136), Vero C1008 (ATCC CRL-1586), Huh-7 (University of Pittsburgh),
and HEK293T expressing ACE2 (293T-ACE2, BEI Resources, NR-52511) cell
lines were maintained in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s
medium (DMEM). Human fibroblast Cell Line, MRC-5 (ATCC CCL-171) was
maintained in Eagle’s minimum essential medium (EMEM, ATCC
30–2003). Both media were supplemented with 10% fetal bovine
serum (FBS) and 1% penicillin–streptomycin antibiotics. Cells
were kept at cell culture incubator (humidified, 5% CO2/95% air, 37 °C). The following reagents were obtained through
BEI Resources, NIAID, NIH: human coronavirus, OC43, NR-52725; human
coronavirus, NL63, NR-470. HCoV-OC43 was propagated in RD cells; HCoV-NL63
was initially propagated in 293T-ACE2 cells and accommodated in Vero
E6 cells. HCoV-229E was obtained from Dr. Bart Tarbet (Utah State
University) and amplified in Huh-7 or MRC-5 cells.

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
