Abstract

Non-tumorigenic cell lines capable of indefinite growth in serum-free media are disclosed. The cell lines are capable of expressing exogenously introduced genes, and may be derived from mouse embryo cells. Methods for producing proteins utilizing these cell lines, and methods for selectively controlling the growth of the cell lines are also disclosed.
