Abstract
We have cloned a full-length 1.6-kilobase cDNA of a human mRNA coding for hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT; IMP:pyrophosphate phosphoribosyltransferase, EC 2.4.2.8) into a simian virus 40-based expression vector and have determined its full nucleotide sequence. The inferred amino acid sequence agrees with a partial amino acid sequence determined for authentic human HPRT protein. Transfection of HPRT-deficient mouse LA9 cells with the purified plasmid leads to the expression of human HPRT enzyme activity in cells stably transfected and selected for enzyme activity in hypoxanthine/aminopterin/thymidine medium.
