RNA interference: the new somatic cell genetics?
RNAi is evolving into a powerful tool for manipulating gene expression in mammalian cells with potential utility for investigating gene function, for high-throughput, function-based genetic screens and potentially for development as a therapeutic tool.
متن کاملSearching for targets: the power of somatic cell genetics.
The efficacy of a therapeutic drug is measured by its potency and selectivity. Therefore, an important aspect of any new therapeutic approach for the treatment of cancer is the identification of traits that distinguish the normal cells of the body from the tumor cells. Modern molecular genetics has developed powerful methods for distinguishing mutant cells from nonmutant cells, even unmasking s...
متن کاملGenetics of Somatic Mammalian Cells
A convenient, reliable method for chromosome delineation of animal cells grown as monolayers on glass has been applied to human, opossum, and Chinese hamster cells. Tissue cultured cells from 5 different, normal organs of 7 different human subjects uniformly displayed the expected chromosome number of 46 and showed no variations in morphology or number other than the expected sex differences an...
متن کاملGenetics of somatic mammalian cells: biochemical genetics of Chinese hamster cell mutants with deviant purine metabolism.
Studies are presented on the biochemical genetics of 30 adenine-requiring mutants of the Chinese hamster ovary cell which were induced by mutagenesis and selected by the BrdU-visible light technique. Representative experiments conducted with these mutants include: hybridization with each other; hybridization with normal human cells; nutritional analysis; biochemical analysis with radioactively ...
متن کاملEndosome maturation: insights from somatic cell genetics and cell-free analysis.
Endosomal density changes in cell-free systems The mechanism by which dense lysosomes are generated in animal cells has been the subject of intense research and speculation (for reviews, see [ 1-31). Despite much progress in understanding the biosynthesis and trafficking of lysosomal enzymes, the internalization of ligands and solutes and the sorting of receptors and other molecules that are re...
