Pancreatic Cancer Cell Line

Description

A hypo-triploid cell line from pancreatic cancer derived from a patient with a germline mutation in BRCA2, obtained from ATCC.

   
Notable Features

Hypo-triploid, extremely rearranged with  36 structural rearrangements involving all chromosomes, the majority of translocations very complex, involving more than three chromosome segments; however two reciprocal translocations – t(6;15) and t(7;10).
