Properties
Karyotype |
modal number = 69; range = 51 to 72. This is a hypertriploid human cell line with the modal chromosome number of 71, occurring in 24% of cells. Most cells had the chromosome numbers distributed between 69 and 72. Polyploid cells occurred at 7.6%. Fifteen or more marker chromosomes were common to most cells. Among them are dup(2) (q22q31) and del(2) (q31) which probably resulted from the balanced translocation between two N2s. Most cells had two copies of del(2). M2 is an A3-sized acrocentric. M13 is a minute submetacentric with 1-3 copies per cell. Origins of both M2 and M13 are not identified. There were two copies of normal X chromosomes. N2 was absent and probably was replaced by dup(2) and del(2). |

Comments |
Electron microscopic observations revealed presence of typical desmosomes at the cell junctions and an abundance of tonofilaments in the cytoplasm.
Mycoplasma contamination was detected and eliminated in 1975.
The line is reported to contain an integrated human papillomavirus type 16 genome (HPV-16, 1 to 2 copies per cell).

Background
Complete Growth Medium |
The base medium for this cell line is ATCC-formulated Eagle''s Minimum Essential Medium, Catalog No. 30-2003. To make the complete growth medium, add the following components to the base medium: fetal bovine serum to a final concentration of 10%. |
