Abstract
Cytogenetic analysis of mutants of the Friend Erythroleukaemia cell line deficient in adenine phosphoribosyl transferase (Aprt) was undertaken to ascertain whether nondisjunctional events were involved in the production of this mutation. All mutant clones examined were found to carry two copies of chromosome 8, the chromosome to which Aprt maps. Since the two homologues are distinguishable by silver staining, it was also clear that no mutants contained two copies of one homologue having lost the other. Treatment of mutants with 5-azacytidine failed to reactivate the Aprt locus.
