KBM-7 cells were derived from a 39-year-old man with chronic myeloid leukemia in blast crisis. The original cell line contained both near haploid and hyperdiploid clones. Subsequent subcloning yielded a pure near-haploid cell line.Genome analysis has revealed that besides the disomic chromosome 8 also a 30 megabase fragment of chromosome 15 is present in two copies. Like other CML cells lines (e.g., K562) KBM-7 cells are positive for the Philadelphia chromosome harboring the BCR-ABL oncogenic fusion. KBM-7 cells have been reprogrammed to yield the HAP1 cell line which is also haploid for chromosome 8. (EFO)
