Concept UI: M000751699
Scope Note: Clone of strain L that was derived in March, 1948. The parent L strain was derived from normal subcutaneous areolar and adipose tissue of a 100-day-old male C3H/An mouse. Clone 929 was the first cloned strain developed from the L strain. (from https://www.atcc.org/products/ccl-1 as of 09/02/2021)
