Cat.No.
CSC-C2045
Description
IL-3 dependent murine pro B cell line; the precise origin of the cell line is unclear; however, performing May-Grünwald-Giemsa staining provides evidence that the cells are indeed from a lymphatic back ground. Cells were apparently not derived from BALB/c, but from C3H mouse. Direct publication is not available, but for related publications see references.
Source
pro B cells
Recommended Medium
90%RPMI-1640 + 10% h.i. FBS + 10 ng/ml IL-3 or 10% vol conditioned medium of WEHI-3B cell line
Culture Properties
suspension
Morphology
mostly single, round (some polymorph) cells in suspension (or occasionally in clumps)
Karyotype
Murine near diploid karyotype with 33% polyploidy - 40(36-42)<2n>
Markers
CD11b (+), F4/80 (+)
Reference
Applications
a. Kinase drug discovery. Ba/F3, a murine interleukin-3 dependent pro-B cell line is increasingly popular as a model system for assessing both the potency and downstream signaling of kinase oncogenes, and the ability of small-molecule kinase inhibitors to block kinase activity.
b. Cell-Based assay
c. In vivo efficacy study

  • Q & A
Q1:
Can you provide the QC of the cell line? For example, mycoplasma test? Do you have the genomic data to make sure there's no contamination.
A:

Yes, of course. We can provide you with the COA of BA/F3, which includes QC test results of each lot.
