Abstract excerpt
Aphidicolin inhibits purified DNA polymerases-a and -d in vitro and inhibits mitosis in animal cells. The Chinese hamster V79 cell mutant, Aphr-4-2, was selected for its ability to form colonies in cultured medium supplemented with 1.0 microM aphidicolin. At this concentration, the parental wild-type V79 cells (clone 743x) have a survival rate of less than 10(-7). The mutant DNA polymerase-a is resistant to...
