GA-10 was derived in 1996 from lymphoma cells circulating in the peripheral blood of a patient with a clinically aggressive, chemo-refractory Burkitt's Lymphoma.
This clone of cells also appears to express high levels of CD77 (approximately 90%); CD77 is also known as Burkitt's lymphoma antigen (BLA).
GA-10 (Clone-4) cells exhibit sensitivity to Shiga Toxin (Stx) in toxicity studies.
Complete culture medium, 95%, described above supplemented with 5% (v/v) DMSO. Cell culture tested DMSO is available as ATCC Catalog No. 4-X.
