Production Details
|
HPV-16 E7 expressing keratinocytes were generated by infecting normal primary cells with an LXSH retrovirus that expressed E7 and conferred hygromycin resistance. After selection in hygromycin, cells were infected with an LXSN retroviral construct that expressed wild-type HPV-16 E6 and conferred G418 resistance.
