Silencing of the mutant SCAP allele accounts for restoration of a normal phenotype in CT60 cells selected for NPC1 expression

The sterol regulatory element binding protein (SREBP)/SREBP cleavage-activating protein (SCAP) complex regulates the transcription of numerous genes involved in cellular cholesterol metabolism. The CHO mutant, CT60, and its parental cell line, 25RA, possess a gain-of-function mutation in one allele...
