Abstract excerpt
It has recently been shown that the cell line Don Q obtained by mutagenesis of wild type Chinese hamster lung fibroblasts (Don wt), presents a point mutation in the gene coding for UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase. The persistent low level of UDP-glucose makes Don Q clone resistant to Clostridium difficile toxin B. Starting from the observation that Don Q cells exhibit many large hydrophobic cytoplasmic inclusions,...
