Abstract
⺠Permanent cell lines of marine invertebrates are needed in marine biotechnology. ⺠The growth potential of naturally occurring tumor-like growths in mollusks is low. ⺠Most of the discovered molluscan tumor-like formations are benign. ⺠Transfection of foreign genes induces tumor-like formations in sea urchin embryos. ⺠The cells transfected by the yeast gal4 gene are involved in active proliferation.
