Applications CRL-4005 (TelCOFS02MA) is an hTERT-immortalized skin fibroblast cell line derived from a patient with Cerebro-Oculo-Facio-Skeletal Syndrome.  This cell line carries a homozygous 2bp deletion in the ERCC6/CSB gene ORF, which generates the nonsense codon TGA at amino acid position 1240 and is expected to result in a truncated polypeptide missing the C-terminal 254 amino acids  RefMeira LB, et al. Manitoba aboriginal kindred with original cerebro-oculo- facio-skeletal syndrome has a mutation in the Cockayne syndrome group B (CSB) gene. Am. J. Hum. Genet. 66: 1221-1228, 2000. PubMed: 10739753
Shipping Information Frozen
Storage Conditions Liquid nitrogen vapor phase
Karyotype TelCOFS02MA is a diploid human cell line of female origin with a modal chromosome number of 46 (46,XX) indicated by cytogenetic analysis on G-banded metaphase cells.

Derivation

This cell line was immortalized by infection with a retroviral vector containing human telomerase cDNA.

This cell line was derived from skin biopsy of a 4-6 years old girl of French/Canadian Aboriginal descent with Cerebro-Oculo-Facio-Skeletal Syndrome.  The patient presented at birth with growth deficiency, microcephaly, and bilateral microphthalmia with cataracts. She failed to thrive and manifested profound developmental deficiency, recurrent pneumonia, and seizures. She had small, deep-set eyes, a prominent nasal root and tip, an overhanging upper lip, and mild micrognathia. Appendicular tone was increased with decreased axial tone, and she developed progressive contractures. Eruption of teeth was delayed until age 4 years, and she was inattentive to visual stimuli. She had no freckling, actinic keratoses, or photosensitivity, and she died at age 6 years

Comments CRL-4005 (TelCOFS02MA) is an hTERT-immortalized skin fibroblast cell line derived from a patient with Cerebro-Oculo-Facio-Skeletal Syndrome.
Complete Growth Medium The base medium for this cell line is ATCC-formulated Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium, Catalog No. 30-2002. To make the complete growth medium, add the following components to the base medium: fetal bovine serum to a final concentration of 5%.
Subculturing Volumes used in this protocol are for 75 cm2 flasks; proportionally reduce or increase amount of dissociation solutions for culture vessels of other sizes. 1. Remove and discard spent medium. 2. Briefly rinse the cells with Dulbecco's Phosphate Buffered Saline (DPBS, ATCC® 30-2200) and discard rinse solution. 3. Add 2.0 to 3.0 mL room temperature 0.25% Trypsin-EDTA (ATCC® 30-2101) to the flask. Incubate at 37°C for 2-3 min (until cells have detached). 4. Neutralize trypsin by adding 5-8 mL of complete growth media. 5. Centrifuge cells at 250 x g for 5 min at room temperature. 6. Remove supernatant. Resuspend pellet in 6.0 to 8.0 mL Complete Growth Medium. 7. Count cells, and seed 4.0 x 10e3 to 6.0 x 10e3 viable cells/cm2 to new culture vessels. Medium Renewal: Every 2-3 days.
Culture Conditions Atmosphere: air, 95%; carbon dioxide (CO2), 5% Temperature: 37°C
