Abstract
We have evaluated the mouse cell line WMP2 using both GTG-banding analysis and spectral karyotyping to verify the reliability of using this established cell line derived from WMP/WMP mice. The WMP cell lines contain easily identifiable metacentric fusion chromosomes and are used extensively for gene mapping. Because of karyotypical changes in the WMP1 cell line, WMP2 was examined. Our results demonstrate that WMP2 is stable during culture, and the karyotype is simple and easy to use. Based on the findings discussed in this paper, we recommend the use of the WMP2 cell line for future prospective gene mapping in the mouse.
