| Remarks |
The donor has clinical features of neurodevelopmental delay, cataracts, cerebral calcification, high arched palate, mildhypotonia, impaired swallowing, and poor motor skills. Donor's deceased sister had similar symptoms. The skin biopsy was taken ante-mortem on 10/27/92 from the arm. The culture was initiated using explants of minced skin tissue. The cell morphology is fibroblast-like. A lymphoblast culture from same donor is AG12723. |
