Abstract

The invention features non-transformant immortal avian cells, in particular derived from avian tissues, i.e. other than blood or haemotopoietic cells, particularly fibroblasts and epithelial cells, for instance of embryos. The avian cells are immortalized by the SV40 T+t gene in the dependence of the MTI promoter. In particular they integrate the pDAMT vector.
