Abstract excerpt
Two mammalian expression plasmids, each carrying a cDNA encoding a different allele of dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) present in the Chinese hamster lung cell line DC-3F, were constructed. These simian virus 40 promoter-enhancer-based plasmids, designated pSVA75 and pSVMQ19, are identical except for a G-->A transition at nucleotide 286 of the DHFR coding sequence. Due to this change, the enzyme expressed by...
