Cytogenetic Analysis: The stemline chromosome number is near-diploid, with the 2S component occurring at 1.8%. Five markers (constitutive markers) were common to most, if not all, metaphases analyzed. Modal chromosome number is 47 (or 46 plus a small metacentric chromosome which is smaller than the G1 group chromosome). Normal chromosomes 5, 7, 8, 12 and 17 were monosomic, and others were disomic. The Y chromosome is detected in the Q-banded preparations.
Isoenzymes: AK-1, 0
ES-D, 1
G6PD, B
GLO-I, 2
Me-2, 1
PGM1, 1-2
PGM3, 0
Age: 59 years
Gender: male
Ethnicity: Caucasian
Comments: The KG-1 cell line was derived by H.P. Koeffler and D.W. Golde. A bone marrow aspirate was obtained from a 59-year-old Caucasian male with erythroleukemia that evolved into acute myelogenous leukemia. [1056]
KG-1 cells spontaneously differentiate to granulocyte and macrophage like cells.
They show a good response to colony stimulating factor (CSF). [1056]
The line is EBNA negative (EBNA-).
Propagation: ATCC complete growth medium: The base medium for this cell line is ATCC-formulated Iscove's Modified Dulbecco's Medium, Catalog No. 30-2005. To make the complete growth medium, add the following components to the base medium: fetal bovine serum to a final concentration of 20%.
Temperature: 37.0°C
Subculturing: Protocol: Cultures can be maintained by the addition of fresh medium or replacement of medium. Alternatively, cultures can be established by centrifugation with subsequent resuspension at 2 X 10 (5) viable cells/ml. Maintain cell density between 2 X 10(5) and 1 X 10(6) viable cells/ml. Do not allow to exceed 2 X 10(6) cells/ml.
Medium Renewal: Twice per week
Preservation: Freeze medium: Complete growth medium supplemented with 5% (v/v) DMSO
Storage temperature: liquid nitrogen vapor phase
Related Products: Recommended medium (without the additional supplements or serum described under ATCC Medium):ATCC 30-2005
recommended serum:ATCC 30-2020
