HUMAN/RODENT SOMATIC CELL HYBRID 
MAPPING PANEL #2, VERSION 3

The National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) Human Genetic Mutant 
Cell Repository has a new version of Mapping Panel #2 available for 
distribution as cell cultures or DNA. Version 3 consists of 24 human-rodent 
somatic cell hybrids each retaining a single intact human chromosome. In 
Version 3, the original hybrids retaining human chromosomes 6 and 14 have been 
replaced. The new monochromosomal hybrid for chromosome 6, GM/NA11580, is a 
human/mouse hybrid in which 100% of the cells retain the human chromosome and 
the monochromosomal hybrid for chromosome 14, GM/NA11535, is a human/mouse 
hybrid in which 92% of the cells retain the human chromosome. The panel has 
been characterized by (1) G-banded chromosome analysis, (2) in situ 
hybridization using biotinylated total human DNA, (3) Southern blot 
hybridization and (4) PCR analysis. Information about these cultures and DNA is 
available via the world wide web (http://arginine.umdnj.edu/coriell/nigms.htm) 
or by contact with the Repository.
