The mutant tmpl--10ts which confers thermosensitive auxotrophy for thymidylate is employed for the selection of 5'-dTMP uptaking mutants. At the nonpermissive temperature yeast cells phenotypically wild type for thymidylate uptake can grow for only 3 to 4 generations in the presence of 10(-2) M 5'-d
It was found that yeast cells contain an endonuclease specific for apurinic sites in DNA which has no effect on DNA with normal strands or on strands with alkylated sites. The enzyme activity was studied in the RAD strain and in rad 6, rad 18-2 and rad 21 mutants, all very sensitive to MMS, as compa
