Two classes of cell lines heterozygous at the galactokinase (glk) locus have been isolated from Chinese hamster ovary cells. Class I, selected by plating nonmutagenized wild-type cells at low density in medium containing 2-deoxygalactose at a partially selective concentration, underwent subsequent mutation to the glk-/- genotype at a low frequency (approximately 10(-6) per cell), which was increased by mutagenesis. Class II heterozygotes, isolated by sib selection from mutagenized wild-type cells, had a higher spontaneous frequency of mutation to the homozygous state (approximately 10(-4) per cell), which was not affected by mutagenesis. About half of the glk-/- mutants derived from a class II heterozygote, but not the heterozygote itself, were functionally hemizygous at the syntenic thymidine kinase (tk) locus. Similarly, a tk+/- heterozygote with characteristics analogous to the class II glk+/- cell lines underwent high-frequency mutation to tk-/-, and most of these mutants, but not the tk+/- heterozygote, were functionally hemizygous at the glk locus. A model is proposed, similar to that for the mutational events at the adenine phosphoribosyl transferase locus (W. E. C. Bradley and D. Letovanec, Somatic Cell Genet. 8:51-66, 1982), of two different events, high and low frequency, being responsible for mutation at either of the linked loci tk and glk. The low-frequency event may be a point mutation, but the high-frequency event, in many instances, involves coordinated inactivation of a portion of a chromosome carrying the two linked alleles. Class II heterozygotes would be generated as a result of a low-frequency event at one allele, and class I heterozygotes would be generated by a high-frequency event. Supporting this model was the demonstration that all class I glk+/- lines examined were functionally hemizygous at tk.

Histidinol-resistant (HisOHR) mutants with up to a 30-fold increase in histidyl-tRNA synthetase activity have been isolated by stepwise adaptation of wild-type Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells to increasing amounts of histidinol in the medium. Immunoprecipitation of [35S]methionine-labeled cell lysates with antibodies to histidyl-tRNA synthetase showed increased synthesis of the enzyme in histidinol-resistant cells. The histidinol-resistant cell lines had an increase in translatable polyadenylated mRNA for histidyl-tRNA synthetase. A cDNA for CHO histidyl-tRNA synthetase has been cloned, using these histidyl-tRNA synthetase-overproducing mutants as the source of mRNA. Southern blot analysis of wild-type and histidinol-resistant cells with this cDNA showed that the histidyl-tRNA synthetase DNA bands were amplified in the resistant cells. These HisOHR cells owed their resistance to histidinol to amplification of the gene for histidyl-tRNA synthetase.
