A549 cells are adenocarcinomic human alveolar basal epithelial cells, and constitute a cell line that was first developed in 1972 by D. J. Giard, et al. through the removal and culturing of cancerous lung tissue in the explanted tumor of a 58-year-old caucasian male. [1]
The mutations required for immortality can occur naturally or be intentionally induced for experimental purposes. Immortal cell lines are a very important tool for research into the biochemistry and cell biology of multicellular organisms. Immortalised cell lines have also found uses in biotechnology.

Isogenic cell lines are created via a process called homologous gene-targeting. Targeting vectors that utilize homologous recombination are the tools or techniques that are used to knock-in or knock-out the desired disease-causing mutation or SNP (single nucleotide polymorphism) to be studied. Although disease mutations can be harvested ...

The human genome contains an estimated 100,000 truncated and 4,000 full-length LINE-1 elements. [10] Due to the accumulation of random mutations, the sequence of many LINEs has degenerated to the extent that they are no longer transcribed or translated. Comparisons of LINE DNA sequences can be used to date transposon insertions in the genome.
The game has been endorsed by the Journal of Cell Science. [1]Alex Rosenwald, in a review for Board Game Quest, stated that the concept of protein synthesis "shines through in all facets of gameplay", with the game mechanics and organelle cell functions aligning into an "immersive experience of creating and transporting various chemicals in and out of the cells".

HRM offers a faster and more convenient closed-tube method of assessing the presence of mutations and gives a result which can be further investigated if it is of interest. In a study carried out by Scott et al. in 2006, [4] 3 cell lines harbouring different BRCA mutations were used to assess the HRM methodology. It was found that the melting ...
