Biochem/physiol Actions
Derived from a 13 year old female caucasian. Cells are sensitive to both virus and chemical transformation and exhibit a flat morphology, low saturation density and low plating efficiency in soft agar. HOS and 143B (Sigma Catalogue number 91112502) originated from the same host: 143B is TK- and originated indirectly from HOS which is TK+ (Skovgaard et al 2010 PMID: 20544518).
