Mutagen-induced diploid human lymphoblast variants containing altered hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyl transferase.
The human lymphoblast line MGL8 was treated with HAT and subsequently "mutagenized" with EMS (200 microgram/ml) to give 15% survival, and 6-thioguanine-resistant cells were selected by cloning in soft agarose containing the drug (1 microgram/ml). Eighteen sublines of independently derived resistant clones were isolated and studied in detail. One subline had a low residual HGPRT activity of abou...
متن کاملDietary-induced variation of hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyl transferase activity in patients with the Lesch-Nyhan syndrome.
We have studied three patients with the Lesch-Nyhan syndrome to assess the effect of dietary purines on erythrocyte hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HGPRT) activity. During dietary purine restriction HGPRT activity rose in all three patients; resumption of normal dietary purine intake or the addition of adenine (10 mg/kg per day) to a purinefree diet resulted in a fall in HGPRT a...
متن کاملHypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyl transferase deficiency presenting with gout and renal failure in infancy.
A month old infant had gout and renal failure caused by hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyl transferase (HGPRTase) deficiency. Investigations showed a high uric acid value, crystal nephropathy on ultrasound, and uric acid deposition on renal biopsy. The HGPRTase value was low in red cells and fibroblasts.
متن کاملAn improved procedure for detection of hypoxanthine--guanine phosphoribosyl transferase heterozygotes.
The absence of activity of the enzyme hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (EC 2.4.2.8) is known to be the cause of the Lesch-Nyhan syndrome. Previous methods for detection of heterozygous carriers of this genetic defect either are quite time consuming, require specialized equipment, or lack the necessary sensitivity. We present here a method in which thin-layer chromatography and aut...
متن کاملReversion in expression of hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyl transferase following cell hybridization.
Hybridization of mutant cell lines deficient in hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyl transferase (HGPRT; E.C.: 2.4.2.8) from a variety of established rodent sources with HGPRT plus human cells yielded progeny cells which grew in selective medium containing hypoxanthine, aminopterin and thymidine (HAT). The same result was obtained when the human cell used was an HGPRT minus transformed line deri...
