ASEC-1 Cell Lines

ASEC-1 is an immortalized lizard cell line derived from A. sagrei stage 6 embryo and can be used to study cellular processes (gene function) in reptile development and evolution.

Strong:

  • Embryonic fibroblast cell line useful for studying reptile gene function and signaling pathways (such as genes with important roles in various organisms, Hedgehog signaling pathway)
  • CRISPR/Cas9 knock-out ASEC-1 ift88-2/-4 and ASEC-1 ift88+1/-5 clones also available
