Remarks |
The Egyptian donor showed mild skin features of XP, mainly depigmentation of face and hands. She had no neurological involvement. The skin 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. Karyotype is 46,XX; normal diploid female. Complementation group assignment and DNA repair deficiency have been verified for this culture (XP11CA). The legacy karyotype description shown in this Remark may not be representative of the current available product. |
