Abstract excerpt
A phosphatidylserine-auxotrophic mutant of cultured Chinese hamster ovary cells, PSA-3, manifests a defect in phosphatidylserine synthase I activity (Kuge, O., Nishijima, M., and Akamatsu, Y. (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 5790-5794). We cloned a Chinese hamster gene, designated pssC, which was able to transform the PSA-3 cell line to a phosphatidylserine prototroph. The resultant transformant contained...
