Human genes coding for hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT, EC 2.4.2.8; IMP:pyrophosphate phosphoribosyltransferase), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD, EC 1.1.1.49; D-glucose-6-phosphate:NADP+ 1-oxidoreductase), and phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK, EC 2.7.2.3; ATP:3-phospho-D-glycerate 1-phosphotransferase) have been assigned to specific regions on the long arm of the X chromosome by somatic cell gentic techniques. Gene assignment and linear order were determined by employing human somatic cells possessing an X/9 translocation or an X/22 translocation in man-mouse cell hybridization studies. The X/9 translocation involved the majority of the X long arm translocated to chromosome 9 and the X/22 translocation involved the distal half of the X long arm translocated to 22. In each case these rearrangements appeared to be reciprocal. Concordant segregation of X-linked enzymes and segments of the X chromosome generated by the translocations indicated assignment of the PGK gene to a proximal long arm region (q12-q22) and the HPRT and G6PD genes to the distal half (q22-qter) of the X long arm. Further evidence suggests a gene order on the X long arm of centromere-PGK-HPRT-G6PD.

Somatic cell hybrids have been obtained between SV40-transformed Lesch-Nyhan fibroblasts, which are deficient in hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HGPRT) and display glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase A (G6PD-A) activity, and late-passage HGPRT-positive W138 human embryo fibroblasts, which display G6PD-B activity. The human-human hybrid clones, which display G6PD-A and G6PD-B and heteropolymers of the two enzyme forms, have the same growth characteristic as the SV40-transformed parental cells and behave as continuous cell lines. The SV40 tumor antigen, the gene for which has been assigned to human chromosome 7, is present in all clones examined.

Bovine embryonic trachea cells were hybridized with mouse A9 cells deficient in hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase, and cattle-mouse hybrid cells clones were isolated after HAT/ouabain selection. In these interspecific cell hybrids, bovine glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, alpha-galactosidase, and phosphoglycerate kinase were expressed concordantly with bovine HPRT. Their expression depended on the presence of bovine X chromosome. These data indicated that the genes for G6PD, PGK, and HPRT are linked and can be assigned to the bovine X chromosome.

Somatic cell hybrid clones were derived from the fusion of hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT; EC 2.4.2.8)-deficient mouse cells and two different human fibroblast strains, each carrying an X chromosome-autosome translocation. One of these had an X/11 translocation [46,X,t(X;11)(p21;q13)] and the other had an X/19 translocation [46,X,t(X;19)(q22;q13)]. The structurally normal human X chromosome is the late-replicating (genetically inactive) chromosome in these two cell strains; the rearranged X chromosome is early replicating (genetically active). One primary hybrid clone carrying both the translocated X chromosome and the structurally normal X chromosome was isolated in hypoxanthine/aminopterin/thymidine medium from each of these two cell fusion experiments. These clones were then selected in medium containing 8-azaguanine to achieve the loss of the active human HPRT locus. Five subclones from the cell hybrid with the X/11 translocation failed to express two known human X-chromosome markers [glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD; EC 1.1.1.49) and phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK; EC 2.7.2.3)] but did express human microsomal steroid sulfatase (STS; sterol-sulfate sulfohydrolase, EC 3.1.6.2). Three of these were cytogenetically analyzed and found to contain a structurally normal human X chromosome but not the X/11 translocation. Two subclones were isolated in 8-azaguanine from the hybrid with the X/19 translocation. Cytogenetic analysis of these two clones showed the presence of a structurally normal human X chromosome; the X/19 translocation was not present. They did not express human G6PD, PGK, or HPRT but did express human STS. These results indicate that human STS is expressed from a locus on the inactive human X chromosome and support our earlier finding that the STS locus escapes X-inactivation in man.

Mouse A9 cells, L-cell-derived mutants deficient in hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT; IMP:pyrophosphate phosphoribosyltransferase, EC 2.4.2.8) were found to be incapable of binding (125)I-labeled epidermal growth factor (EGF) to the cell surface. The A9 cells were fused with human diploid fibroblasts (WI-38) possessing EGF-binding ability, and human-mouse cell hybrids (TA series) were isolated after hypoxanthine/aminopterin/thymidine/ouabain selection. Analyses of isozyme markers and chromosomes of four representative clones of TA hybrids indicated that the expression of EGF-binding ability is correlated with the presence of human chromosome 7 or 19. Four subclones were isolated from an EGF-binding-positive line, TA-4, and segregation of EGF-binding was found to be concordant with the expression of human mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase (MDHM; L-malate:NAD(+) oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.1.37), a marker for chromosome 7, but not with glucosephosphate isomerase (GPI; D-glucose-6-phosphate ketol-isomerase, EC 5.3.1.9), a marker for chromosome 19. Furthermore, evidence from 27 clones of AUG hybrids that were produced between A9 and another human fibroblast line, GM1696, carrying an X/7 chromosome translocation indicated that EGF-binding ability segregates together with human MDHM and two X-linked markers, HPRT and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD; D-glucose-6-phosphate:NADP(+) 1-oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.1.49), that are located on the translocation chromosome 7p(+). These results permit assignment of the gene, designated EGFS, which is associated with the expression of EGF-binding ability, to human chromosome 7 and its localization to the p22-qter region. Because the EGF receptor is reported to be a glycoprotein the EGFS could be either a structural gene(s) for receptor protein or a gene(s) for modifying the receptor protein through glycosylation.

Chinese hamster x American mink somatic cell hybrids were obtained and examined for chromosome content and expression of mink malate dehydrogenase, NADP (MOD-1; EC 1.1.1.40), malate dehydrogenase, NAD (MOR-1; EC 1.1.1.37), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD; EC 1.1.1.49) and hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT; EC 2.4.2.8). All the hybrid clones examined were found to segregate mink chromosomes. A clone panel containing 25 clones was set up. The possibilities and limitations of this panel for mink gene mapping are analysed. Using this panel, it is feasible to rapidly map genes located on chromosomes 1-13 and to provisionally assign genes located on chromosome 14 and the X. Based on the data obtained, the genes for MOD-1 and MOR-1 were firmly assigned to mink chromosomes 1 and 11, respectively, and the genes for G6PD and HPRT were provisionally assigned to the X.
