  • Title: Human regulatory gene for inducible tyrosine aminotransferase in rat-human hybrids.
    Author: Croce CM, Litwack G, Koprowski H.
    Journal: Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A; 1973 Apr; 70(4):1268-72. PubMed ID: 4146214.
    Abstract:
    The inducibility of tyrosine aminotransferase (EC 2.6.1.5) by corticosteroid hormones in rat-human hybrid clones was studied. The presence of human X chromosome activity in the cells was always associated with the suppression of tyrosine aminotransferase inducibility in all the clones examined. Negative correlation between the human X chromosome and inducibility of the enzyme was clearly established. Corticosteroid receptor was present to the same extent in hybrid cell clones that either contained or lost the human X chromosome. The human repressor for inducible tyrosine aminotransferase has a linkage relationship with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.49) and hypoxanthine-guanine-phosphoribosyltransferase (EC 2.4.2.8) and, therefore, can be assigned to the X chromosome.
