Abstract

The regulation of thymidylate synthetase activity was investigated throughout the first cell cycle after release from an isoleucine block in synchronous cultures of mouse hepatoma (Hepa) cells. Activity in cell extracts increased with the onset of S phase and the increased activity was attributed to a parallel increase in enzyme concentration as determined by titration with tritiated fluorodeoxyuridylate. The polyglutamate chain length of reduced folate cofactors, which could also influence thymidylate synthetase activity, was unchanged.
