In order to investigate the influence of loss of heterozygosity (LOH) events on mutation rate, we studied two closely related human lymphoblastoid cell lines, AHH-1 (h2E1.v2) and MCL-5, which are heterozygous at the tk locus (chromosome 17q23-25). Although they have similar mutant fractions at the hprt locus, the mutant fraction and rate at tk is four to five times higher in AHH-1. Analysis of 58 spontaneous TK- mutants from AHH-1 and MCL-5 showed that the occurrence of LOH events was more frequent (23/24) in AHH-1 than MCL-5 (16/34). A set of five microsatellite polymorphism loci was used to map the extent of LOH along chromosome 17q. In AHH-1 cells, 15/23 of the LOH events encompassed at least 35% of the sex-averaged genetic length of chromosome 17q (98 cM). Additionally, the next most extensive category of LOH accounted for 5/23 TK- mutants, and encompassed at least 17 cM. In contrast, LOH events observed in MCL-5 are very restricted in extent; only one LOH tract extended as far as 4 cM from tk. The higher mutation rate at tk in AHH-1 can, therefore, be entirely attributed to the recovery of chromosomal scale LOH in viable, normal growth TK- mutants. Furthermore, these data demonstrate that the regional potential for LOH is likely to be an important determinant of mutation rate for loci within that chromosomal segment.
