## Abstract The karyotypes of three human hepatoma cell lines Hep G2, Hep 3B and PLC/PRF/5 were investigated by Gβ and Cβbanding techniques. In addition to ploidy changes, typical for most carcinoma cell lines, certain markers were found that remained stable throughout passage of these cultures. Ch

Abstract
Nine human tumor cell lines (five breast carcinomas and four sarcomas) have been studied and each revealed groups of distinctive banded marker chromosomes which can serve to identify them and aid in monitoring cell line specificity. This was possible neither by conventional karyology in terms of numbers and morphology of chromosomes nor by glucoseβ6βphosphateβdehydrogenase mobility which was type B for all cultures. The significance of the clonal nature of the cell lines is discussed.

## Matilde Relda C a i l l e a ~, ~ and T. C. Hsu'l2 Previous cytogenetic studies have shown that marker chromosomes thought to be unique to the human carcinoma cell line HeLa exist in some human breast tumors, but these studies have not found such markers in human cervical carcinoma lines. The p
Previous work has shown that proteins phosphorylated on tyrosine are selectively detectable by antibodies against phosphotyrosine (P-Tyr) in cells transformed by retroviral class-I oncogene-encoded kinases endowed with non-regulated activity (Di Renzo eta/.. 1986).
