Description: 2ftgh-ISRE-CBG99 cell line- a report line for interferon stimulation. To create these cells the inventors generated a report plasmid of interferon-stimulated response element (5xISRE)-driven luciferase, and co-transfected this vector together with pPUR plasmid into the human 2ftgh fibrosarcoma cell line.
