Abstract excerpt
We have developed an efficient system for obtaining myeloma mutants defective in trans-acting factors required for immunoglobulin (Ig) gene expression. The system consists of a myeloma cell line designed for this purpose and an efficient method for selecting mutants from it. The cell line is X63.653 transfected with the mu gene, whose tailpiece sequence was replaced with the transmembrane sequence of human EGF...
