Mutants of Chinese hamster ovary cells resistant to millimolar concentrations of (alpha)-methyl- and (alpha)-difluoromethylornithine, inhibitors of ornithine decarboxylase, have been isolated through sequential selections at increasingly higher concentrations of the drugs. The resistant phenotype is completely stable for several weeks in the absence of selection and is dominant in hybrids. The mutants express elevated levels of ornithine decarboxylase activity, in approximate proportion to their level of resistance. By several criteria, such as the rate of degradation in the presence of protein synthesis inhibitors, the affinity for ornithine, inhibition by (alpha)-methylornithine, inhibition by antizyme, and binding of radiolabeled (alpha)-difluoromethylornithine, the enzyme in the mutant cells appears physically unaltered from the enzyme in wild type cells. Regulation of the elevated enzyme activity also appears normal, at least with respect to induction during the cell cycle, repression by polyamines, and induction of antizyme. Indirect evidence from experiments with inhibitors of RNA and protein synthesis suggests that the mutants may have elevated levels of ornithine decarboxylase mRNA. Ornithine decarboxylase from these mutants has been purified to near homogeneity. The major protein species has been positively identified as active enzyme by binding of tritiated inhibitor. Loading the purified protein onto two-dimensional gels has allowed identification of the ornithine decarboxylase spot in similar two-dimensional gels of crude extracts from both mutant and wild type cells. Extracts from mutant cells have an obviously enlarged spot compared to extracts from wild type cells in the position where purified enzyme runs. In future studies, these overproducing mutants should prove invaluable as highly enriched sources of enzyme protein for further enzyme purifications and for analysis of regulation at the level of synthesis and degradation of ornithine decarboxylase.
