A monensin-resistant mutant Monr-31, derived from Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell line, has been shown to have a reduced number of insulin receptors and a reduction in glucose uptake in response to insulin. We have further investigated the possibility that altered glucose uptake in Monr-31 cells i

Abstract
Surface label experiments using the galactose oxidase‐[^3^ H] ‐borohydride technique reveal that cells from drug‐resistant Chinese hamster ovary clones possess a surface carbohydrate component of apparent molecular weight 165,000 which is absent from wild‐type cells. The component may also be demonstrated by [^14^C] glucosamine incorporation but not by [^3^ H] leucine incorporation or by the lactoperoxidase surface labeling reaction.

Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell variants resistant to a carboxylic ionophore, monensin, have been isolated. Two monensin-resistant variants and Mon ' -32) showed a threeto fourfold higher resistance to monensin than did CHO. These Mon' clones also showed fourfold higher resistance to another carbox
