Abstract excerpt
The enzymes involved in the purine interconversion pathway of wild-type and purine analog-resistant strains of Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum Marburg were assayed by radiometric and spectrophotometric methods. Wild-type cells incorporated labeled adenine, guanine, and hypoxanthine, whereas mutant strains varied in their ability to incorporate these bases. Adenine, guanine, hypoxanthine, and xanthine were...
