Abstract

Tubercidin-resistant mutant strains of Neurospora crassa were isolated, and at least one appeared to be deficient in adenosine kinase. No significant differences in [8-14C]adenosine labeling of purine nucleotides or nucleosides were found between the wild type and the adenosine kinase-deficient strains.
