Stable cell lines are one of the most used tools in drug discovery, toxicity testing, and basic research. Long-term stable expression of a gene of interest is usually achieved by transfection or viral transduction of a vector containing the expression cassette of the gene of interest together with a selection marker (antibiotics or fluorescent proteins). In contrast to transient expression, stable cell lines offer reproducible results for assay studies in drug discovery and development.
