The GEM-199 cell line originates from an erythrophoroma of goldfish (Carassius auratus) and boasts a robust plating efficiency. Demonstrating remarkable resilience, GEM 199 cells exhibit enhanced resistance to gamma-rays compared to mammalian cells and CAF-MM1 cells sourced from normal goldfish fin tissue. These cells also outperform CAF-MM1 cells in terms of UV-irradiation resistance. Notably, 
GEM 199 cells display photoreactivation following UV-irradiation, impacting both survival and mutation outcomes. With a spontaneous mutation frequency of 1-5×10-6 clones per viable cell, these cells offer a valuable tool for research. Subculturing is facilitated with a 1:8 split ratio, typically performed once a week.
