“…We therefore investigated the length of this microsatellite repeat sequence in our cell line panel. As established earlier (Pascual et al, 2003), we grouped the CA microsatellite into two alleles: S (short)À(CA) 11À12 and L (long)À(CA) 13À20 . We found the following genotype frequencies: 61% SS (TK-6, HS-5, MDA-MB-231, MCF-7, Pre B697, Naml6, CCRF-CEM, K562, TR14, NB1691, Jurkat), 28% SL (ML-1, T47D, Molt-4, HL-60, SK-N-BE2C), 11% LL (Raji, LoVo) ( Table 1).…”
