Expression of differentiated functions in hepatoma cell hybrids: alanine aminotransferase.
The expression of alanine aminotransferase (EC 2.6.1.2), an enzyme that is inducible in the liver, has been examined in somatic hybrid cells formed by crossing well-differentiated rat hepatoma cells with rat diploid epithelial cells, the former characterized by high activity and inducibility of the enzyme, and the latter by the absence of detectable activity. The hybrid cells that contain essen...
متن کاملExpression of differentiated functions in hepatoma cell hybrids: reappearance of tyrosine aminotransferase inducibility after the loss of chromosomes.
HYBRIDS FROM A CROSS OF RAT HEPATOMA CELLS WITH DIPLOID EPITHELIAL CELLS FROM RAT LIVER HAVE BEEN STUDIED WITH RESPECT TO KARYOTYPE AND EXPRESSION OF TWO FUNCTIONS LIMITED TO THE HEPATOMA PARENT: high level of the enzyme tyrosine aminotransferase (EC 2.6.1.5; L-tyrosine:2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase) and its inducibility with steroid hormones. The hybrids that contain the complete chromosomal...
متن کاملExpression of differentiated functions in hepatoma cell hybrids: induction of mouse albumin production in rat hepatoma-mouse fibroblast hybrids.
The synthesis of serum albumin has been studied in hybrids between well-differentiated rat hepatoma cells, which synthesize serum albumin, and mouse fibroblasts (3T3) that do not synthesize albumin. By immunodiffusion techniques with noncrossreacting antisera, the production of both rat and mouse albumin by the hybrids has been examined. Karyologically identified hybrids were produced between 3...
متن کاملAlanine Aminotransferase
An examination of the subcellular distribution of alanine aminotransferase activity in pig cardiac tissue showed that about 10% of the total activity was bound to particulate material, with the highest specific activity in the sarcosomal fraction. The soluble enzyme was obtained in a high state of purity, as indicated by sedimentation velocity, starch gel electrophoresis, and spectral analyses....
متن کاملExpression of aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase induction and suppression of tyrosine aminotransferase induction in somatic-cell hybrids.
Aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase activity is inducible in mouse 3T3 fibroblasts by benz[alpha]anthracene, whereas no detectable basal or inducible levels of this enzyme occur in rat-hepatoma tissue culture cells. Conversely, tyrosine aminotransferase activity is inducible in hepatoma cells by dexamethasone, whereas only low noninducible levels of this enzyme exist in 3T3 cells. In hybrids formed by...
