Abstract excerpt
We previously described the isolation of colcemid resistant Chinese hamster ovary cell lines containing alpha- and beta-tubulin mutations that increase microtubule assembly and stability. By analyzing colcemid sensitive revertants from one of the beta-tubulin mutants, we now find that loss or inactivation of the mutant allele represents the most common mechanism of reversion. Consistent with this loss, the...
