Hi Karl, JY cells are a b cell lymphoblastoid line as far as i remember any 
way-- look in to the atcc (im sure they have a web site) they are sure to 
have info.  Jack Strominger (i think) used these cells to isolate HLA 
antigens back in the eighties (if i remember correctly which is about as 
probable as the POWERBALL ODDS!)
