Abstract excerpt
The Chinese hamster hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT)-deficient cell line TG15 produces apparently normal HPRT mRNA by northern analysis and was therefore presumed to contain a point mutation within the coding region. Sequencing cDNA from the TG15 cell line revealed an A to G transition which results in the substitution of the amino acid glycine for aspartic acid at position 135. TG15 cells...
