Abstract
Viruses regulate cellular signalling pathways to ensure optimal viral replication. During Marburg virus (MARV) infection, large quantities of the viral glycoprotein GP are produced in the ER; this may result in the activation of the unfolded protein response (UPR). The most conserved pathway to trigger UPR is initiated by IRE1. Activation of IRE1 results in auto-phosphorylation, splicing of the XBP1 mRNA and translation of the XBP1s protein. XBP1s binds cis-acting UPR elements (UPRE) which leads to the enhanced expression of genes which should restore ER homeostasis. XBP1u protein is translated, if IRE1 is not activated. Here we show that ectopic expression of MARV GP activated the IRE1-XBP1 axis of UPR as monitored by UPRE luciferase assays. However, while at 24 h of infection with MARV IRE1 was phosphorylated, expression of XBP1s was only slightly enhanced and UPRE activity was not detected. The IRE1-XBP1 axis was not active at 48 h p.i. Co-expression studies of MARV proteins demonstrated that the MARV protein VP30 suppressed UPRE activation. Co-immunoprecipitation analyses revealed an RNA-dependent interaction of VP30 with XBP1u. Knock-out of IRE1 supported MARV infection at late time points. Taken together, these results suggest that efficient MARV propagation requires specific regulation of IRE1 activity.

Abstract
Recent evidence suggests that endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is involved in the regulation of various physiological functions, including those of the vascular system. However, the relationship between ER stress and vascular function is poorly understood. The endothelial cells control the vascular tone by releasing endothelium-derived relaxing factors and contracting factors (EDCFs). We hypothesized that tunicamycin, an inducer of ER stress, modifies endothelium-dependent contraction and prostaglandins (PGs), a major class of EDCFs, induced contractions in the rat renal artery in rats. An organ-culture technique was used to purely investigate the effects of ER stress on the vascular tissue. We observed that tunicamycin treatment (20 μg/mL for 23 ± 1 h) did not affect acetylcholine (ACh)-induced relaxation and decreased EDCF-mediated contractions under nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibition induced by ACh, ATP, or A23187 (a calcium ionophore) in the renal arteries. Under NOS inhibition, U46619 (a thromboxane A2 mimetic)- and beraprost (a prostacyclin analog)-induced contractions were also decreased in the renal arteries of the tunicamycin-treated group (vs. vehicle), while PGE2- and PGF2α-induced contractions were similar between the groups. Tunicamycin treatment slightly enhanced the contractions induced by phenylephrine, an α1 adrenoceptor ligand. Isotonic high-K+-induced contractions were similar between the vehicle- and tunicamycin-treated groups. Another ER stress inducer, thapsigargin (4 μmol/L for 23 ± 1 h), also caused substantial reduction of ACh-induced EDCF-mediated contraction (vs. vehicle-treated group). In the cultured renal arteries, tunicamycin and thapsigargin increased the expression of binding immunoglobulin protein (BiP), an ER stress marker. In conclusion, ER stress induction directly affects renal arterial function, especially in reducing EDCF-mediated contractions.

Tunicamycin inhibits Toll-like receptor-activated inflammation in RAW264.7 cells by suppression of NF-κB and c-Jun activity via a mechanism that is independent of ER-stress and N-glycosylation.

Abstract
In this study, we investigated the effect of tunicamycin on the production of pro-inflammatory molecules in RAW264.7 macrophage cells in response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and Toll-like receptor (TLR) agonists. Tunicamycin caused a reduction in LPS-induced nitric oxide (NO) production and expression of inducible NO synthase (iNOS), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α). In contrast, other ER stress-inducing chemicals, such as A23187 and thapsigargin (TG), increased LPS-induced COX-2 expression and had no effect on LPS-induced iNOS, TNF-α or IL-1β expression. Furthermore, the inhibitory effect of tunicamycin on LPS-induced inflammation was not influenced by salubrinal, an ER stress inhibitor, suggesting that the anti-inflammatory effect of tunicamycin is independent of ER stress. Tunicamycin also inhibited the expression of inflammatory molecule mRNAs induced by stimulation of TLR2 (with lipoteichoic acid) or TLR3 (with polyinosinic:polycytidylic acid), which do not require myeloid differentiation protein-2 (MD2) for their activation. Moreover, inhibition of LPS-induced iNOS expression was not inhibited by castanospermine, another N-glycosylation inhibitor, suggesting that the inhibitory effect of tunicamycin on LPS-induced iNOS induction is likely independent of MD2 N-glycosylation. Tunicamycin inhibited nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-κB) activity by suppressing LPS-induced nuclear translocation of p50 and subsequent DNA binding of p50 and p65 to the NF-κB site of the iNOS promoter. Tunicamycin also inhibited the transcriptional activity of a cAMP-response element (CRE) reporter, possibly by inhibiting c-Jun activation. Therefore, we conclude that tunicamycin represses TLR-induced inflammation through suppression of NF-κB and CRE activity via a mechanism that is independent of ER-stress and N-glycosylation.

Abstract
Tunicamycin (TM) inhibits eukaryotic asparagine-linked glycosylation, protein palmitoylation, ganglioside production, proteoglycan synthesis, 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme-A reductase activity, and cell wall biosynthesis in bacteria. Treatment of cells with TM elicits endoplasmic reticulum stress and activates the unfolded protein response. Although widely used in laboratory settings for many years, it is unknown how TM enters cells. Here, we identify in an unbiased genetic screen a transporter of the major facilitator superfamily, major facilitator domain containing 2A (MFSD2A), as a critical mediator of TM toxicity. Cells without MFSD2A are TM-resistant, whereas MFSD2A-overexpressing cells are hypersensitive. Hypersensitivity is associated with increased cellular TM uptake concomitant with an enhanced endoplasmic reticulum stress response. Furthermore, MFSD2A mutant analysis reveals an important function of the C terminus for correct intracellular localization and protein stability, and it identifies transmembrane helical amino acid residues essential for mediating TM sensitivity. Overall, our data uncover a critical role for MFSD2A by acting as a putative TM transporter at the plasma membrane.

Abstract
In mammalian cells, inhibition of translation interferes with synthesis of the lipid-linked oligosaccharide (LLO) Glc3Man9GlcNAc2-P-P-dolichol as measured with radioactive sugar precursors. Conflicting hypotheses have been proposed, and the fundamental basis for this regulation has remained elusive. Here, fluorophore-assisted carbohydrate electrophoresis (FACE) was used to measure LLO concentrations directly in cells treated with translation blockers. Further, LLO biosynthetic enzymes were assayed in vitro with endogenous acceptor substrates using either cells gently permeabilized with streptolysin-O (SLO) or microsomes from homogenized cells. In Chinese hamster ovary (CHO)-K1 cells treated with translation blockers, FACE did not detect changes in concentrations of Glc3Man9GlcNAc2-P-P-dolichol or early LLO intermediates. These results do not support earlier proposals for feedback repression of LLO initiation by accumulated Glc3Man9GlcNAc2-P-P-dolichol, or inhibition of a GDP-mannose dependent transferase. With microsomes from cells treated with translation blockers, there was no interference with LLO initiation by GlcNAc-1-P transferase (GPT), mannose-P-dolichol synthase, glucose-P-dolichol synthase, or LLO synthesis in vitro, as reported previously. Surprisingly, inhibition of all of these was detected with the SLO in vitro system. Additional experiments with the SLO system showed that the three transferases shared a limited pool of dolichol-P that was trapped as Glc3Man9GlcNAc2-P-P-dolichol by translation arrest. Overexpression of GPT was unable to reverse the effects of translation arrest on LLO initiation, and experiments with FACE and the SLO system showed that overexpressed GPT was not functional in vivo, although it was highly active in microsomal assays. Thus, the combined use of the SLO in vitro system and FACE showed that LLO biosynthesis depends upon a limited primary pool of dolichol-P. Physical perturbation associated with microsome preparation appears to make available a secondary pool of dolichol-P, masking inhibition by translation arrest, as well as activating a nonfunctional fraction of GPT. The implications of these results for the organization of the LLO pathway are discussed.

Abstract
The cytotoxic drug tunicamycin kills cells because it is a specific inhibitor of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine:dolichol phosphate N-acetylglucosamine-1-P transferase (GPT), an enzyme that catalyzes the initial step of the biosynthesis of dolichol-linked oligosaccharides. In the presence of tunicamycin, asparagine-linked glycoproteins made in the endoplasmic reticulum are not glycosylated with N-linked glycans, and therefore may not fold correctly. Such proteins may be targeted for breakdown. Cells that are treated with tunicamycin normally experience an unfolded protein response and induce genes that encode endoplasmic reticulum chaperones such as the binding protein (BiP). We isolated a cDNA clone for Arabidopsis GPT and overexpressed it in Arabidopsis. The transgenic plants have a 10-fold higher level of GPT activity and are resistant to 1 microg/mL tunicamycin, a concentration that kills control plants. Transgenic plants grown in the presence of tunicamycin have N-glycosylated proteins and the drug does not induce BiP mRNA levels as it does in control plants. BiP mRNA levels are highly induced in both control and GPT-expressing plants by azetidine-2-carboxylate. These observations suggest that excess GPT activity obviates the normal unfolded protein response that cells experience when exposed to tunicamycin.

Abstract
UDP-N-acetylglucosamine:dolichyl-phosphate N-acetylglucosamine-1-phosphate transferase (GPT) is the first enzyme in the dolichol pathway of protein N-glycosylation, and is implicated in the developmental programmes of a variety of eukaryotes. In the present study we describe the effects of all-trans-retinoic acid (RA) on the levels of GPT protein and enzymic activity, and on the transcription rate of the GPT gene, in mouse P19 teratocarcinoma cells. RA caused a dose-dependent and protein-synthesis-dependent induction of enzyme activity. The maximum induction of GPT activity (about 3-fold) required 2 days of exposure to 1 microM RA. Induced GPT activity also resulted in an increase in the rate of incorporation of [3H]mannose into Glc3Man9GlcNAc2. Enzymic activities paralleled GPT gene expression. The GPT gene was induced (2-fold) after 7 h of RA treatment. An approx. 3-fold increase in a 48 kDa GPT protein and approx. 4-fold increases in the levels of three GPT transcripts (1.8, 2.0 and 2.2 kb) were observed after 2 days of RA treatment. The enhanced levels of GPT protein and mRNAs began to decline 3 days after the initiation of differentiation, and GPT expression was down-regulated during cellular differentiation. GPT activity decreased about 2. 8-fold to a constant level in differentiated P19 cells. The results indicate that the RA-induced enzyme activity was mainly determined by increased transcription of the GPT gene. RA-treated P19 cells were about 4-fold more resistant to tunicamycin, a fungal antibiotic which inhibits GPT, than were control cells. In addition, GPT activity in membranes from RA-treated P19 cells exhibited approx. 4-fold increased resistance to tunicamycin compared with activity in membranes from untreated control cells, demonstrating that resistance to tunicamycin is correlated with induced GPT activity. Furthermore, increased GPT activity had regulatory significance with regard to the rate of incorporation of [3H]mannose into Glc3Man9GlcNAc2-P-P-dolichol and into glycoproteins. Together, the data provide additional insights into the hormonal regulation of GPT and present evidence that the RA-mediated induction of GPT has a regulatory impact on the dolichol pathway.

Abstract
Seven different Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell mutants, isolated in different ways and having biochemical defects that were expressed at 34 degrees C, were found to be temperature sensitive for growth at 40.5 degrees C. Six of the mutants had five different lesions in N-linked glycosylation; two mutants were in the same complementation group. The temperature-sensitive phenotype in three mutants appeared by cell fusion studies to be linked to the glycosylation phenotype. In some of the glycosylation mutants [B4-2-1 (Lec15.1), Lec9, Lec1, and Lec24], but not in all of them (MI5-4 and MI8-5), incubation at 40.5 degrees C induced apoptosis, as determined by appearance of DNA fragmentation. Tunicamycin (TM) also induced apoptosis in both parental and Lec9 cells. There was a direct correlation between inhibition of glycosylation by TM treatment and induction of apoptosis. Induction of apoptosis by TM was inhibited by cycloheximide. These studies suggest that specific alterations in N-linked glycosylation in CHO cells are endogenous inducers of apoptosis.

Abstract
The secretory pathway of mammalian cells involves a complex sequence of steps beginning with the translation and translocation of proteins across the rough endoplasmic reticulum membrane followed by their transport through a variety of intracellular compartments. Understanding the cellular mechanisms involved in protein transport would be facilitated by the application of somatic cell genetics techniques. Therefore, we have developed a procedure for the isolation of Chinese hamster ovary cell lines that are deficient in this pathway. Mutant (sec) clones that secrete into the medium a lesser amount of newly synthesized protein relative to wild type are detected in the screen. One of the sec cell lines, LEH6, has similar growth and protein synthetic rates as do wild-type cells. The extent of total protein secretion is 60-70% of wild-type with some proteins more reduced than others. Immunoprecipitation studies indicate that for LEH6 cells there is impaired secretion of fibronectin (three- to fourfold) and major excreted protein (two- to sixfold).

Abstract
A correlation between increased beta-1,6 branching of N-linked carbohydrates and the ability of a cell to metastasize or to form a tumor has been observed in several experimental models. Lec9 Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) mutants exhibit a drastic reduction in tumorigenicity in nude mice, and this phenotype directly correlates with their ability to attach an increased proportion of beta-1,6-branched carbohydrates to the G glycoprotein of vesicular stomatitis virus (J. Ripka, S. Shin, and P. Stanley, Mol. Cell. Biol. 6:1268-1275, 1986). In this paper we provide evidence that cellular carbohydrates from Lec9 cells also contain an increased proportion of beta-1,6-branched carbohydrates, although they do not possess significantly increased activity of the beta-1,6 branching enzyme (GlcNAc-transferase V). Biosynthetic labeling experiments show that a substantial degree of underglycosylation occurs in Lec9 cells and that this affects several classes of glycoproteins. Lec9 cells synthesize ca. 40-fold less Glc3Man9GlcNAc2-P-P-lipid and ca. 2-fold less Man5GlcNAc2-P-P-lipid than parental cells do. In addition, Lec9 cells possess ca. fivefold less protein-bound oligosaccharide intermediates, and one major species is resistant to release by endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase H (endo H). Membranes of Lec9 cells exhibit normal mannosylphosphoryldolichol synthase, glucosylphosphoryldolichol synthase, and N-acetylglucosaminylphosphate transferase activities in the presence of exogenous dolichyl phosphate. However, in the absence of exogenous dolichyl phosphate, mannosylphosphoryldolichol synthase and glucosylphosphoryldolichol synthase activities are reduced in membranes of Lec9 cells, indicating that membranes of Lec9 cells are deficient in lipid phosphate. This was confirmed by analysis of lipids labeled by [3H]mevalonate, which showed that Lec9 cells have less lipid phosphate than parental CHO cells. Mechanisms by which a defect in the synthesis of dolichol-oligosaccharides might alter the degree of beta-1,6 branching in N-linked carbohydrates are discussed.

Ripka, S. Shin, and P. Stanley, Mol. Cell. Biol. 6:1268-1275, 1986). In this paper we provide evidence that cellular carbohydrates from Lec9 cells also contain an increased proportion of beta-1,6-branched carbohydrates, although they do not possess significantly increased activity of the beta-1,6 branching enzyme (GlcNAc-transferase V). Biosynthetic labeling experiments show that a substantial degree of underglycosylation occurs in Lec9 cells and that this affects several classes of glycoproteins. Lec9 cells synthesize ca. 40-fold less Glc3Man9GlcNAc2-P-P-lipid and ca. 2-fold less Man5GlcNAc2-P-P-lipid than parental cells do. In addition, Lec9 cells possess ca. fivefold less protein-bound oligosaccharide intermediates, and one major species is resistant to release by endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase H (endo H). Membranes of Lec9 cells exhibit normal mannosylphosphoryldolichol synthase, glucosylphosphoryldolichol synthase, and N-acetylglucosaminylphosphate transferase activities in the presence of exogenous dolichyl phosphate. However, in the absence of exogenous dolichyl phosphate, mannosylphosphoryldolichol synthase and glucosylphosphoryldolichol synthase activities are reduced in membranes of Lec9 cells, indicating that membranes of Lec9 cells are deficient in lipid phosphate. This was confirmed by analysis of lipids labeled by [3H]mevalonate, which showed that Lec9 cells have less lipid phosphate than parental CHO cells. Mechanisms by which a defect in the synthesis of dolichol-oligosaccharides might alter the degree of beta-1,6 branching in N-linked carbohydrates are discussed.

Abstract
Restriction digests of genomic DNA from tunicamycin-resistant Chinese hamster ovary cells, 3E11, were probed with the yeast transferase gene, ALG7. The data presented suggest moderate amplification of the N-acetylglucosaminyl-1-phosphate transferase gene occurred in these cells, consistent with the previously observed chromosomal translocations and increased enzymatic activity. This is the first example of gene amplification as a mechanism for aberrations in N-linked glycosylation.

Abstract
A population of Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells resistant to the antibiotic tunicamycin (TM) had previously been isolated (Criscuolo, B.A., and Krag, S.S. (1982) J. Cell Biol. 94:586-591) by a stepwise selection procedure using progressive increments of TM added to the medium. TM inhibits asparagine-linked glycoprotein biosynthesis by blocking the transfer of N-acetylglucosamine-1-phosphate from the sugar nucleotide UDP-N-acetylglucosamine to the isoprenoid lipid carrier, dolichyl phosphate. Four clonal derivatives were isolated from the TM-resistant population in the presence of 27 micrograms TM/ml and were found to overproduce the N-acetylglucosamine-phosphate transferase activity to the same extent (approximately 15-fold compared to wild-type cells). One of these clones, 3E11, was greater than 550-fold more resistant to TM than wild-type cells. The resistance phenotype remained during at least 2.5 months of growth in the absence of TM. 3E11 cells exhibited chromosomal translocations, but no homogeneously staining regions (HSR) or double minute chromosomes. The N-acetylglucosamine-phosphate transferase activity in 3E11 cells was membrane-associated and was inhibited by TM. A 140,000-dalton membrane protein and at least four other membrane proteins were enriched in 3E11 cells. Mannosylphosphoryldolichol synthase and glucosylphosphoryldolichol synthase activities were not elevated in membranes prepared from 3E11 cells. Asparagine-linked glycosylation was altered such that 3E11 cells synthesized primarily a truncated oligosaccharide, Man5GlcNAc2, perhaps due to the reduced amount of mannosylphosphoryldolichol relative to wild-type cells.

Abstract
Human epidermal keratinocytes incubated with recombinant gamma interferon (r-IFN-gamma) show, on two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, both the appearance of new proteins and the loss of others. Among [35S]methionine-labeled proteins, which are induced in an actinomycin- or alpha-amanitin-sensitive manner, is a prominent group with an apparent relative molecular mass of 53,000 and pI of 5.3-5.8. The synthesis of these proteins continues for at least 4 days in the presence of gamma interferon (IFN-gamma). Over the concentration range tested, up to 670 pM, there is no inhibition of protein synthesis, so the appearance of these proteins cannot be explained by overall inhibition of protein synthesis. Furthermore, at 4 pM we found only minor inhibition of DNA (21%) and RNA (29%) synthesis. Half-maximal induction of the prominent 53 kD proteins occurs at an interferon concentration of 0.8-3.5 pM which may be compared with a range of 1.5-30 pM for HLA-DR induction. The same prominent proteins are also induced by type I interferons. The 53 kD protein complex appears to consist of at least 4 different proteins, one of which is phosphorylated and another one of which is not induced in fibroblasts treated with IFN-gamma. We could obtain no evidence that the proteins were related by glycosylation. The presence of these proteins provides a sensitive means of identifying keratinocytes responding to interferons. Lack of these proteins in normal epidermis indicates that interferon does not play a major role in the control of keratinocyte behavior in sound skin.

Abstract
Tunicamycin at 10 micrograms/ml inhibits the growth and infectivity of the parasitic protozoan Leishmania mexicana amazonensis. Tunicamycin-resistant variants of this parasite were produced by gradual acclimatization of cells to increasing concentrations of the drug up to 80 micrograms/ml and a single-step selection of ethyl methanesulfonate-pretreated or differentiating leishmanias with the drug at 10 micrograms/ml. Prolonged exposure to the drug increases stability of drug resistance of those resistant to 10 micrograms/ml. Tunicamycin-resistant cells contain amplified DNA, which hybridizes in proportion to the cells' degree of drug resistance with Alg 7, a cloned DNA probe apparently encoding yeast N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase. This enzyme from all variants remained sensitive to inhibition by tunicamycin, but its specific activity was up to 15-fold higher than that of the wild type. Thus, amplification of the gene encoding this enzyme appears to result in its overproduction in the variants, accounting for their resistance to tunicamycin. The tunicamycin-resistant cells are more virulent to mice than their parental wild type. Thus, leishmanial virulence may be related to amplification or expression of gene(s) encoding enzymes involved in the regulation of N-glycosylation of parasite proteins.

Abstract
Membrane mutants of animal cells have been isolated by several laboratories, using a variety of selection protocols. The majority are lectin receptor mutants arising from altered glycosylation of membrane molecules. They have been obtained by selection for resistance to cytotoxic plant lectins or by alternative protocols designed, in many cases, to isolate different classes of receptor mutants. The identification of most membrane mutants expressing altered surface carbohydrates is rapidly achieved by determining their resistance to several lectins of different carbohydrate-binding specificities. For Chinese hamster ovary mutants, genetic novelty may subsequently be determined by complementation analysis with selected members of 10 recessive, glycosylation-defective complementation groups defined by this laboratory. In an attempt to identify new complementation groups, 11 Chinese hamster ovary membrane mutants independently isolated in different laboratories have been investigated for their lectin resistance and complementation properties. Only one new complementation group was defined by these studies. The remaining 10 mutants fell into complementation group 1, 2, 3, or 8. Although no evidence for intragenic complementation was observed, indirect evidence for different mutations within some genes was obtained. Seven of the independent isolates fell into complementation group 1, reflecting the high probability of isolating the Lec1 phenotype from Chinese hamster ovary populations. The results emphasize the importance of performing a genetic analysis before biochemical characterization of putative new membrane mutants.

Abstract
The effects of a purified homologue of tunicamycin (B2-tunicamycin) on the biosynthesis of lipid-linked intermediates participating in protein glycosylation in normal embryonic fibroblasts, 3T3 and virally transformed (simian virus 40 and polyoma virus) mouse fibroblasts grown in culture were investigated. Long incubations (20 h) with the antibiotic caused a higher degree of inhibition of sugar incorporation into glycoproteins in transformed cells. However, the formation of lipid-linked intermediates was inhibited to a similar level in both cell types. When time dependent inhibition experiments were carried out using transformed cells, an earlier and stronger inhibition of the formation of lipid-oligosaccharides occurred (70% inhibition at 30 min). In 3T3 cells, prolonged incubation (6-8 h) was necessary in order to reach a similar degree of inhibition. Formation of lipid-sugar was also inhibited to a greater extent by B2-tunicamycin in transformed cells. This inhibition was not clearly time dependent. Analysis of the newly synthesized glycolipids in 3T3 and in transformed cells after B2-tunicamycin treatment have shown reduction in dolichyl-P-P-sugars as well as in other glycolipids. Dimethylsulfoxide (10%) and linoleic acid (0.5 mg/ml) markedly increased the level of tunicamycin activity in 3T3 cells while phosphatidylcholine (2 mg/ml) partially reversed it. The stronger and faster inhibition of the formation of lipid intermediates of the dolichyl-phosphate cycle caused by B2-tunicamycin in transformed cells, described here for the first time, may therefore be due to differences in penetration of the antibiotic into these cells.

Abstract
Asparagine-linked glycosylation is a form of covalent modification that distinguishes proteins that are either membrane bound or are in cellular compartments topologically outside of the cell from those proteins that remain soluble in the cytoplasm. This type of glycosylation occurs stepwise, with core oligosaccharide added in the endoplasmic reticulum and subsequent modifications occurring in the golgi. We used tunicamycin, an inhibitor of one of the earliest steps in the synthesis of N-linked oligosaccharide, to select for mutants that are resistant to this antibiotic. Genetic, biochemical, and physiological experiments led to the following conclusions. The synthesis of N-linked oligosaccharide is an essential function in cells. In contrast to mammalian cells, yeast cells do not transport tunicamycin by a glucosamine transport function. We identified a gene, ALG7, that is probably the structural gene for UDP-N-acetylglucosamine-1-P transferase, the enzyme inhibited by tunicamycin. Dominant mutations in this gene result in increased activity of the transferase and loss of the ability of the cell to sporulate. In addition, we identified another gene, TUN1, in which recessive mutations result in resistance to tunicamycin. The ALG7 and TUN1 genes both map on chromosome VII.

Abstract
A genetic system comprised of mammalian cell mutants which demonstrate concomitant resistance to a number of unrelated drugs has been described previously. The resistance is due to reduced cell membrane permeability and is correlated with the presence of large amounts of a plasma membrane glycoprotein termed P-glycoprotein. This system could represent a model for multiple drug resistance which develops in cancer patients treated with chemotherapeutic drugs. We demonstrate here that the multiple drug resistance phenotype can be transferred to mouse cells with DNA from a drug-resistant mutant and then amplified quantitatively by culture in media containing increasing concentrations of drug. The amount of P-glycoprotein was correlated directly with the degree of drug resistance in the transformants and amplified transformants. In addition, the drug resistance and expression of P-glycoprotein of the transformants were unstable and associated quantitatively with the number of double minute chromosomes. We suggest that the gene for multiple drug resistance and P-glycoprotein is contained in these extrachromosomal particles and is amplified by increases in double minute chromosome number. The potential use of this system for manipulation of mammalian genes in general is discussed.
