Mammalian cell mutants of membrane phospholipid biogenesis.
Cultured mammalian cell mutants defective in the biosynthesis of membrane phospholipids, although limited in number, are increasing our understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying the biogenesis and the biological significance of membrane phospholipids in higher eukaryotes. This review summarizes the progress in the isolation and characterization of such mutants, focusing on those isolated from cultured Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells.
