| Remarks |
The Egyptian donor had squamous cell carcinoma of skin. He had no neurological involvement. Family history is negative. The biopsy was taken ante-mortem on 3/19/80. The culture was initiated using explants of minced skin tissue. The cell morphology is fibroblast-like. The karyotype is 46,XY; normal diploid male with 27% of cells examined showing chromosomal abnormalities. Complementation group assignment and DNA repair deficiency have been verified for this culture (XP13CA). The legacy karyotype description shown in this Remark may not be representative of the current available product. |
