Human AML cell lines HL60, U937 were purchased at DSMZ (Braunschweig, Germany) and KG1a at ATCC (Manassas, VA, USA). THP1 expressing IDH1WT were gifted by Prof. Steven Chan [11 (link)]. Clones from the HL60 cell line expressing either IDH1WT (clone 2 and 7) or IDH1R132H (clone 5 and 11) were generated by our team [4 (link)]. HL60 was engineered to express IDH2WT or IDH2R172K as described below. All the cells excluding THP1 were maintained in MEMα with Glutamax (Gibco, Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA, USA) supplemented with 10% FBS (Invitrogen, Waltham, MA, USA) in the presence of 100 U/mL of penicillin and 100 µg/mL of streptomycin. THP1 were cultivated in RPMI with Glutamax (Gibco, Life Technologies, CA, USA) supplemented with 10% FBS (Invitrogen, MA, USA) in the presence of 100 U/mL of penicillin and 100 µg/mL of streptomycin. All cell lines have been routinely tested for mycoplasma contamination in the laboratory.
