Abstract
Abstract A homogeneous population of cells having on average (1) a number of cell surface low-affinity heparin-binding growth factor (HBGF) sites per cell less than 20% of the number of such binding sites found on wild-type CHO-K1 cells (ATCC Accession No. CCL61), and at least three times the number of cell surface high-affinity HBGF receptors per cell found on such CHO-K1 cells; and an assay system utilizing such cells.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
62 words
A homogeneous in vitro population of mammalian cells having on average a number of cell surface low-affinity HBGF-binding sites per cell less than 20% of the number of such binding sites found on wild-type CHO-K1 cells (ATCC Accession No. CCL61), and on average at least three times the number of cell surface high-affinity HBGF receptors per cell found on said CHO-K1 cells.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
62 words
A homogeneous in vitro population of mammalian cells having on average a number of cell surface low-affinity HBGF-binding sites per cell less than 20% of the number of such binding sites found on wild-type CHO-K1 cells (ATCC Accession No. CCL61), and on average at least three times the number of cell surface high-affinity HBGF receptors per cell found on said CHO-K1 cells.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
25 words
The population of cells of claim 1 wherein each of the cells in said population comprises a recombinant nucleic acid encoding said high-affinity HBGF receptor.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
27 words
The population of cells of claim 1, wherein said high-affinity HBGF receptor is endogenous to a species selected from the group consisting of human, mouse, and chicken.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
18 words
The population of cells of claim 3, wherein said high-affinity HBGF receptor is a mouse high-affinity HBGF receptor.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
19 words
The population of cells of claim 1, wherein said high-affinity HBGF receptor is a high-affinity aFGF or bFGF receptor.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
23 words
The population of cells of claim 2, wherein said recombinant nucleic acid is incorporated into the genome of each cell of said population.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
24 words
The population of cells of claim 2, wherein each cell of said population is transiently transfected with a vector comprising said recombinant nucleic acid.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
57 words
A system for assaying the ability of a substance to bind to a high-affinity HBGF receptor, which system comprises a cell of the population of cells of claim 1 (the "test cell"), and an amount of heparin or a heparin-like molecule sufficient to induce binding of a HBGF to a high-affinity HBGF receptor on said test cell.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
43 words
A system for assaying the ability of a substance to affect the interaction between a given type of HBGF and a high-affinity HBGF receptor, which system comprises said given type of HBGF and a cell of the population of cells of claim 1.
