Abstract excerpt
A novel mutant of the LLC-PK1 renal epithelial cell line, VPR1, was isolated after mutagenesis with N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine and selection using a photoactivatable vasopressin analogue [1-(3-mercapto)propionic acid, 8-(N6-4-azidophenylamidino)lysine] vasopressin. The VPR1 mutant cell line possessed less than 5% parental V2 receptor binding for vasopressin but exhibited normal calcitonin receptor...
