Repression of cytosine deaminase by pyrimidines in Salmonella typhimurium.

Abstract:

:The synthesis of cytosine deaminase in Salmonella typhimurium is repressed by pyrimidines. This repression is mediated by both a uridine and a cytidine compound, indicating a distinct difference in the regulation of synthesis of cytosine deaminase from the regulation of the de novo pyrimidine pathway enzymes. A salvage role for the enzyme in pyrimidine metabolism is postulated.
