Abstract excerpt
Deletion of both thioredoxin genes TRX1 and TRX2 of Saccharomyces cerevisiae reduces the rate of DNA replication. This observation, originally determined by flow cytometry, was confirmed by radiochemical labeling of synchronized cultures. Since thioredoxin is a hydrogen donor to ribonucleotide reductase, a priori the inhibition of DNA synthesis was predicted to be caused by a reduction in the deoxyribonucleotide...
