MOLT-13 (sister to MOLT-14)
ACC 436
Cell line:
MOLT-13 (sister to MOLT-14)
DSMZ no.:
ACC 436
Species:
human (Homo sapiens)
Cell type:
T cell leukemia
Origin:
established from the bone marrow of a 2-year-old girl with T-ALL (T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, FAB L2) at relapse in 1983; MOLT-14 (ACC 437) is a simultaneous sister cell line derived from the same patient sample with similar or identical features; by STR analysis, MOLT-13 and MOLT-14 are genetically identical
