Abstract excerpt
The radiosensitive mutant xrs-5, a derivative of the Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) K1 cell, is defective in DNA double-strand break rejoining ability and in V(D)J recombination. The radiosensitivity and defective repair phenotype are complemented by the 80-kDa subunit of the Ku protein. We determined the nature of the mutations that develop spontaneously at the hprt locus in this cell line using both multiplex PCR...
