As part of their continuing efforts to characterize and authenticate the cell lines in the Cell Biology collection, ATCC has developed a comprehensive database of short tandem repeat (STR) DNA profiles for all of their human cell lines. ...

The NCBI BioSample database archives STR profiles and descriptions for several thousand cell lines, as provided by cell line repositories. The database is administered by the US National Library of Medicine, National Institutes of Health. ...

Worksheets are helpful for human cell line authentication to determine if STR genotypes from cell line samples are related. These worksheets can be used to perform a search for similar STR genotypes using the Cellosaurus STR Similarity Search Tool (CLASTR) or compare ...
