摘要: Yeast strains carrying the allele su-pur are sensitive to a number of purine analogues including 6-mercaptopurine (6MP), whereas su-pur+-carrying insensitive [1]. Experimentation into 6MP insensitivity revealed that agent was being utilized as nutrient source both by su-pur+ strain, and cells with an adenine requirement. As reportedly excrete hypoxanthine [1] it is suggested biochemistry differs in yeast man, degradation via sulfinic acid may occur.
