Description

HeLa S3 cells are a clonal derivative of the parent HeLa cell line (ATCC CCL-2). The HeLa S3 clone has been very useful in the clonal analysis of mammalian cell populations relating to chromosomal variation, cell nutrition, and plaque-forming ability. This line can be adapted to grow in suspension and is a suitable transfection host. The cells are positive for keratin by immunoperoxidase staining. HeLa cells have been reported to contain human papilloma virus 18 (HPV-18) sequences
