Cytosine arabinoside (Ara-C) is a very potent inhibitor of DNA synthesis in mammalian cells. This inhibition does not appear to be due to the direct inhibition of DNA polymerase by Ara-CTP (triphosphate of Ara-C) because it is a very weak competitive inhibitor of this enzyme. The inhibition of DNA s
