Description
Established from the bone marrow metastasis of a 17-year-old man with undifferentiated (standard classification) or unclassified (Palmer classification) alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma; cells were described as carrying a p53 mutation, expressing high levels of both myogenin and myoD, and expressing the Pax3/FKHR fusion protein secondary to the t(2;13)(q35;q14) translocation
