Stable transfection Plasmid or retrovirus vectors are stably integrated into the genome of tissue culture cells, resulting in the stable expression of transfected genes. Clones of stably transfected cells are selected by selectable markers (e.g.
Stable transfection: A form of transfection experiment designed to produce permanent lines of cultured cells with a new gene inserted into their genome. Usually this is done by linking the desired gene with a "selectable" gene, i.e.
