Description
Established by PEG-mediated fusion of the B-lymphoblastoid cell line (B-LCL) LCL 721.174 with an 8-azaguanine and ouabain-resistant variant of the T-LCL CEM (CEMR.3); cells were described to synthesize HLA-A2 and -B5 RNA, but express only small amounts of A2 and no B5 antigen on the cell surface; subclone of the T1 cell line which has lost both CEMR-derived copies of chromosome 6; cell line also known as 174xCEM.T2
Karyotype
Human flat-moded hypertriploid karyotype with 5% polyploidy; 69-78<3n>XX, +2, +11, +13, +14, +16, +20, +20, +21, +mar, add(X)(q11), del(7)(q31.3), add(8)(p11), t(8;9)(p11;p24), del(9)(q21)x1-2, add(14)(q32)x1-2, add(16)(q11), add(18)(q23); derived from CC
