Non-viable cell pellet was generated from cell line WM1366. WM1366 is a tumorigenic (VGP) primary melanoma cell line with competence for metastasis. This cell line was established from a right forearm in a 79-year-old male with stage IV superficial spreading melanoma. WM1366 cells produce xenograft tumors when injected into immunocompromised mice. This cell line features a Q61L mutation at position 61 in the N-RAS gene. The Q61L mutation results in an amino acid substitution at position 61 in NRAS, from a glutamine (Q) to a leucine (L). The role of N-RAS mutations for selecting/prioritizing anticancer treatment, including cytotoxic chemotherapy and targeted agents, is unknown at this time. This cell line is wild type for BRAF, PTEN c-KIT, and CDK4.
