Rearrangements of chromosomal regions containing ribosomal RNA genes and centromeric heterochromatin in the human melanoma cell line MeWo
Abstract
A chromosomal examination of cells from the earliest available passage of the human melanoma cell line MeWo revealed the presence of seven hypodiploid cell types that shared common complex marker chromosomes. Two of the cell types had long homogeneously staining regions (HSR) by Q-banding on three different chromosomes. Distamycin A/DAPI staining and silver staining for active nucleolar organizing regions (NOR) confirmed that the HSR were …
