Mutants temperature-sensitive for growth have been isolated from the established line of Chinese hamster fibroblasts Wg1A. These mutants, together with the ones previously isolated by Roscoe et al. ('73), have been characterized with regard to their cell cycle properties. Most of them become arreste

## Abstract Isolation of a wide variety of temperatureβsensitive (ts) cell cycle mutants in mammalian cells has previously proved to be a very difficult task. The various procedures used for the isolation of such mutants included a mutant enrichment step based on exposure of the cells to the restri
## Abstract Viability, DNA synthesis and mitosis have been followed in the temperature sensitive Chinese hamster cell mutant K12 under permissive and nonβpermissive conditions. On incubation at 40Β°C cells retained their ability to form colonies at 33Β°C for 15 to 20 hours, but viability was lost gra
