Spodoptera frugiperda single cell suspension cell line in serum-free media, methods of producing and using

摘要

Disclosed and claimed is a new insect cell line, Sf900+, ATCC CRL-12579. The insect cell line was established from Lepidoptera, Noctuidae, Spodoptera frugiperda Sf-9 (ATCC CRL-1711) through multiple rounds of limiting dilution and selection in a serum-free insect medium supplemented with added human insulin. The insect cell line is useful in BEVS or as an adjuvant and has many characteristics and advantages. Also disclosed and claimed are recombinant proteins from recombinant baculovirus expression in insect cells such as Sf900+ cells, for instance, HA, NA, EPO, CD4, CEA, and thrombospondin.
