J. Biol. Chem. 274, 8669-8677. A cell type-specific constitutive point mutant of the common β-subunit of the human granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), Interleukin (IL)-3, and IL-5 receptors requires the GM-CSF receptor α-subunit for activation. 1999

Jenkins, B.J., Le, F., Gonda, T.J.

Notes: The CellTiter 96® Non-Radioactive Cell Proliferation Assay was used to assay the proliferation of BAF-B03, a normally IL-3-dependent cell line, infected with a retrovirus encoding the murine GM-CSF receptor α subunit (GMRa) only or GMRa and the mutant β-chain signal transduction fragment containing the mutation I374N. The infected cell line with the wildtype receptor could now proliferate in response to GM-CSF or Il-3 but did not grow in the absence of either factor. The cell line infected with the I374N mutant and the GM-CSF receptor α subunit could proliferate without either factor. These two mutants also gave self-proliferative properties to CTLL-2 cells. The mutant β chain protein was generated with the Altered Sites® II in vitro Mutagenesis System. (0973)
