A deoxynucleoside triphosphate triphosphohydrolase promotes cell cycle progression in Caulobacter crescentus

ABSTRACT Intracellular pools of deoxynucleoside triphosphates (dNTPs) are strictly maintained throughout the cell cycle to ensure accurate and efficient DNA replication. DNA synthesis requires an abundance of dNTPs, but elevated dNTP concentrations in nonreplicating cells delay entry into S phase. E...
