Title: [Effect of 2,6-diaminopurine resistance mutations on adenine and adenosine assimilation by cells of an adenine-dependent strain of Escherichia coli K-12]. Author: Livshits VA. Journal: Genetika; 1976; 12(7):180-2. PubMed ID: 187528. Abstract: In purine-requiring strain of Escherichia coli K-12 defective in purine nucleoside phosphorylase (pur, pup) mutants (designated apt) have been obtained that are resistant to 2,6-diaminopurine on guanine-containing medium and incapable to utilize adenine for their growth at 42degreesC, but they are still sensitive to the analogue and can utilize adenine at 28degreesC. It has been shown that the introduction of the corresponding apt mutations in the genome of adenine-requiring strains impaired the ability of these strains to grow on both adenine and adenosine at 42degreesC.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
