Abstract

Transfection of a hamster cell mutant with human DNA corrected both the low-density lipoprotein receptor-deficient phenotype and the multiple glycosylation defects of the cells. Independently transfected colonies contained a small set of common human DNA fragments. These fragments may correspond to the human analog of a single gene required for several different Golgi processing pathways.
