The NIH 3T3 Duo-Parental Cell Line allows for the direct study of the dynamics of single double-strand breaks (DSBs) and translocations in living mammalian cells in vivo.
NIH3T3 cells which contain integrated into chromosome 7 the ISceI restriction endonuclease site adjacent to an array of the Lac-operator DNA sequence (LacO, 256 copies) and three integrations on chromosomes 1 and 10 (integrations on two chromosome homologs) of the TetO-ISceI-TetO array (TetO, 96 copies). This cell line does not coexpress the fluorescent repressors LacR-GFP and TetR-mCherry.
