Failure of RNA synthesis to recover after UV irradiation: an early defect in cells from individuals with Cockayne's syndrome and xeroderma pigmentosum

TL;DR: It is shown that Cockayne cells, as well as cells from a number of patients with xeroderma pigmentosum, are sensitive to the lethal effects of UV irradiation in stationary phase under conditions in which no DNA is synthesized after irradiation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparative human cellular radiosensitivity: I. The effect of SV40 transformation and immortalisation on the gamma-irradiation survival of skin derived fibroblasts from normal individuals and from ataxia-telangiectasia patients and heterozygotes.

TL;DR: The greater sensitivity of A-T derived cells to gamma radiation is confirmed, and cells transformed by plasmids expressing SV40 T-antigen, both pre- and post-crisis, show this increased resistance, indicating that it is expression of SV 40 T- Antigen, rather than immortalization per se which is responsible for the change.
Journal Article

Abnormal Kinetics of DNA Synthesis in Ultraviolet Light-irradiated Cells from Patients with Cockayne's Syndrome

TL;DR: The recovery of DNA synthesis in normal cells appears to be unaffected by fluorodeoxyuridine but inhibited by cycloheximide, which suggests a possible requirement for de novo protein synthesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Efficient immortalization and morphological transformation of human fibroblasts by transfection with SV40 DNA linked to a dominant marker

TL;DR: It is suggested that the use of a dominant selectable marker linked to the SV40 early region increases the probability of establishing an immortal human cell line.
