Targeted Knock-in of Transgenes into the CHO Cell Genome Using CRISPR-mediated Integration Systems [PDF]
Biopharmaceutical proteins are usually produced by culturing recombinant Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. High producer cell lines are screened from transfected cells with random integration of target genes. Since transgene expression is susceptible to

PRTFDC1 is a genetic modifier of HPRT-deficiency in the mouse. [PDF]
Lesch-Nyhan disease (LND) is a severe X-linked neurological disorder caused by a deficiency of hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT). In contrast, HPRT-deficiency in the mouse does not result in the profound phenotypes such as self-injurious ...

Hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT)‐deficiency is associated with impaired fertility in the female rat [PDF]
The purine hypoxanthine plays important role in regulating oocyte maturation and early embryonic development. The enzyme hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT) recycles hypoxanthine to generate substrates for nucleotide synthesis and key ...

Identification of a new lesch-nyhan syndrome mutation (HPRT BRASIL) and analysis of potentially heterozygous females [PDF]
The mutation in the hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT) gene has been determined in two brothers affected with Lesch-Nyhan syndrome. Female members of the family who are at risk for being heterozygous carriers of the HPRT mutation were ...

Association between Cigarette Smoking and Hypoxanthine Guanine Phosphoribosyltransferase Activity
The aim of this study was to investigate the association between smoking behavior and hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HGPRT) activity. A cross-sectional study was performed of 82 men, including 38 non-smokers and 44 smokers.

Induced pluripotent stem cells from subjects with Lesch-Nyhan disease
Lesch-Nyhan disease (LND) is an inherited disorder caused by pathogenic variants in the HPRT1 gene, which encodes the purine recycling enzyme hypoxanthine–guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HGprt).

Thermophilic phosphoribosyltransferases Thermus thermophilus HB27 in nucleotide synthesis
Phosphoribosyltransferases are the tools that allow the synthesis of nucleotide analogues using multi-enzymatic cascades. The recombinant adenine phosphoribosyltransferase (TthAPRT) and hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase (TthHPRT) from Thermus ...
