Abstract
The size of deoxynucleoside triphosphate pool in cultured mouse FM3A cells and mutator mutants isolated from this cell line was determined by high-pressure liquid chromatography after treatment of the cells with ultraviolet light, N-methyl-N′-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine or mitomycin C. The results showed that, in all the FM3A cell clones, no large increase in the dATP or TTP pool was induced after treatment, while in some cases 40–50% decrease in dCTP pool was observed. It is concluded that the induction of large increase in dNTP pool is not the general effect of the mutagens.
