Remarks |
The culture was initiated on 10/5/82 from explants of minced skin tissue taken from a therapeutically aborted fetus of 18 weeks gestational age. The cell morphology is fibroblast-like. The karyotype is 46,XY with a variant chromosome 6 centromere area. A matched lung-derived fibroblast culture from same fetus is AG06558. The legacy karyotype description shown in this Remark may not be representative of the current available product. |
