P.229 right column bottom paragraph: "The mechanism for replication arrest when RNR [ribonucleotide reductase] is inhibited remains unknown. If RNR inhibition resulted in significant expansion of the rNTP pools, it is possible that an increased rNTP/dNTP ratio might result in misincorporation of ribonucleotides into DNA and thereby trigger a replication arrest. However, the rNTP pools in yeast, calculated from published data to be 0.34 mM rUTP, 2 mM rATP, 0.26 mM rCTP, and 0.34 mM rGTP (primary sources), are 5–90-fold greater than the corresponding dNTP pools (Fig. 1B) (refs 15, 18) and are therefore unlikely to be affected by the presence or absence of a relatively small flux of rNDPs through RNR." |
