Novel method for isolating mammalian cells defective in fluid-phase endocytosis.

A new method for isolating mutants defective in fluid-phase endocytosis has been developed based on the observation that endocytosed horseradish peroxidase can be made lethal to cells. The method was used to isolate a mutant from Chinese hamster ovary cells, termed HRP-1, that was temperature-sensitive for viability and had a 70% reduction in the rate of horseradish peroxidase endocytosis at the restrictive temperature. At high temperature, HRP-1 cells were also defective in the secretory path and their Golgi complex disappeared at the resolution of fluorescence microscopy. These properties are similar to two previously described mutants of CHO cells, DS28-6 and V.24. 1. In complementation tests, mutants HRP-1, DS28-6, and V.24.1 all appeared to be in the same complementation group.[1]
