Abstract excerpt
Human hepatoma cells deficient in HPRT activity were isolated by challenging HepG2 cells with 6-thioguanine (6TG). Three 6TG-resistant isolates were plated in selective media, and each clonal line displayed an 8-azaguanine-resistant, HAT-sensitive phenotype. The HPRT-deficient phenotype of one of these clones, H30-1, was confirmed in genetic tests: the HAT-sensitivity of H30-1 cells was complemented by fusion by...
