Abstract excerpt
A study was made of the lethal and mutagenic effects on extracellular phage gamma of 5-3H-cytosine incorporated into DNA. The efficiencies of inactivation by incorporated 3H were equal for 5-3H-cytosine and [3H-methyl]-thymidine, but the yield of c-mutations for the former was 14 times higher. The lethal and mutagenic effects of incorporated 5-3H-cytosine did not depend on ung mutation of host cells which caused...
