  • Génétique
DEF

Cellule dans laquelle la croissance virale n'a pas lieu. Une lignée cellulaire permissive provient, en général, d'un animal chez lequel un virus donné se reproduit normalement. En revanche, les lignées non permissives proviennent en général d'animaux incapables d'assurer la multiplication d'un virus donné. Ainsi, selon le virus étudié, une cellule peut être permissive ou non.
