Abstract excerpt
We have previously reported the isolation and characterization of mutant Chinese hamster ovary (CHO-K1) cells of the Urd-A complementation group, which require uridine for growth, are deficient in the activities of the first three enzymes of de novo UMP biosynthesis, and produce markedly reduced amounts of a truncated form of the multifunctional protein CAD, which contains these three enzyme activities. We report...
