Abstract excerpt
The TK6 human B lymphoblastoid cell line contains two easily and widely used selectable markers: the X-linked, hemizygous hprt locus, and the heterozygous tk locus on chromosome 17q. In this study, rare APRT heterozygotes were directly isolated from the TK6 population by clonal selection in cell culture medium supplemented with 5 micrograms/ml of 8-azaadenine. One of nine isolated heterozygotes, AZH1, was...
