Description
Renal cell carcinoma cell line RCC4 stably transfected with pcDNA3-VHL. The plasmid pcDNA3-VHL confers neomycin resistance and encodes the von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) tumour suppressor gene product pVHL. The original renal carcinoma cell line RCC4 is VHL-deficient. The RCC4 plus vector alone cell line can serve as a negative control cell line to study the effect of pVHL expression from pcDNA3-VHL. These cells are less tumourigenic than corresponding cell lines lacking pVHL function.
