The deoxycytidine pathway for thymidylate synthesis in Escherichia coli.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Nov 2007

Weiss Bernard

Abstract excerpt

When thymidylate production is diminished by a mutation affecting dCTP deaminase, Escherichia coli is known to use an alternate pathway involving deoxycytidine as an intermediate. The pathway requires the gene for any of three nucleoside diphosphate kinases (ndk, pykA, or pykF) and the gene for a...
