Cell Line Origin
Human Caucasian B lymphocyte
Cell Line Description
Derived from the peripheral blood of a 43 year old Caucasian male with widespread melanoma. The cells were transformed with defective EBV (B-95-W8).
COLO 839 (Sigma Catalogue number 93051119), COLO 858 (Sigma Catalogue number 93052613) and COLO 857 (Sigma Catalogue number 93051120) were all derived from the same 43 year-old male patient with malignant melanoma (see references below). This has been confirmed by STR profiling.
