| Remarks |
The donor has a history of progressive memory loss. Two of donor's parent's siblings are affected. Culture was initiated on 2/24/93 by transformation of lymphocytes with Epstein Barr virus. The cells grow in suspension and their morphology is spherical. The karyotype is normal with 6% of the cells examined showing random chromosome loss and 2% showing random chromosomal abnormalities. Donor's siblings are AG12981 and AG12982A. Donor is homozygous for the 4 allele of apolipoprotein E. The legacy karyotype description shown in this Remark may not be representative of the current available product. |
