High-frequency mutagenesis of human cells and characterization of a mutant unresponsive to both alpha and gamma interferons.
15 Dec 1991
Abstract excerpt
2fTGH is a human cell line containing the selectable marker guanine phosphoribosyltransferase regulated by alpha interferon (IFN-alpha). Two IFN-alpha-unresponsive mutants were isolated previously at a low frequency (ca. 10(-8)) by selecting mutagenized 2fTGH cells in selective medium containing 6-thioguanine and IFN-alpha. By using five rounds of mutagenesis, mutants can be isolated at an appreciably higher...
