Abstract:The Simian virus 40-transformed rabbit spleen cell TRSC-1 synthesizes intracellular whole IgG molecules of the alb4 allotype. Two hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoryl transferase-deficient mutants were derived from this line. One of these, TRSC-1-8, was used in somatic cell fusion experiments together with gangliocytes from a rabbit immunized against beta-galactosidase. Out of nineteen hybrid clones surviving in selective medium, only one, L17, was shown to produce free gamma chains which express the a2 allotype of… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
