DNA synthesis and modification in ØW-14-infected Pseudomonas acidovorans

Experiments with ØW-14-infected, thymidine-requiring mutants of P_. acidovorans strain 29 demonstrated that deoxyuridine but not thymidine was a precursor of thymine in ØW-14 DNA. Deoxyuridine was also a precursor of the a-putrescinylthymine found in ØW-14 DNA. The biosynthesis of a-putrescinylthymi...
