Stationary phase cells and aminopterin

These times refer to cells with a 24 h generation time. It is not readily applicable to cells with a short generation time in which t S is greater than half T. [Pg.236]

The double thymidine block is the method most frequently referred to in the literature but it is tedious to apply and suffers from the disadvantage that the cells enter S-phase with a pool of dTTP which is decreasing over the first hour or so and this makes estimation of [Pg.236]

The isoleucine/hydroxyurea method also involves two medium changes but the first of these may be replaced by simply adding isoleucine to the deficient medium. [Pg.237]

The stationary phase and aminopterin method suffers from the disadvantage that it takes a week to prepare the cells but thereafter it is straightforward and DNA synthesis can be followed without interference from endogenous pools ( 12.1.1). [Pg.237]

Variations and other combinations of these methods are obviously possible, e.g. mitotic selection and thymidine block aminopterin block reversed with low thymidine followed by a high thymidine block reversed with deoxycytidine. [Pg.237]
