Abstract excerpt
The Chinese hamster ovary recessive mutant, crB, has been selected for its resistance to the cytotoxic effects of 25-hydroxycholesterol in sterol-free media (Sinensky, M., Logel, J., and Torget, R. (1982) J. Cell. Physiol. 113, 314-319). Growth of crB in a chemically defined lipid-poor medium is very slow and is enhanced by a mixture of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids. Incorporation of [3H]acetate into...
