Complementation analysis in ataxia telangiectasia: fibroblast-lymphoblastoid cell heterokaryon assay by radiation-induced chromosome aberrations.
Using radiation-induced chromosome aberrations as a marker, heterokaryons of ataxia telangiectasia formed between appropriate combinations of lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs) and fibroblasts representing four and two different groups, respectively, were analyzed. The results showed that complementation group 2 in the LCL series corresponds to group D in the fibroblast series.
