Previous studies in prokaryotes and in eukaryotic cell lines have indicated the possible existence of more than one dTTP pool accessible to DNA synthesis. To investigate this possibility in eukaryotes in vivo, the incorporation of [3H] deoxythymidine into nuclear matrix-attached DNA and intracellular dTTP was examined in regenerating rat liver. The labeling of matrix DNA reached a maximum after a 5 min pulse and then began to rapidly decrease. Conversely, [3H] deoxythymidine incorporation into dTTP began to increase after 5 min and peaked 10 min after injection. Since the peak specific activity for [3H] deoxythymidine incorporation into matrix DNA precedes that into dTTP, there seems to be channeling of exogenous thymidine directly to sites of DNA replication, bypassing existing nucleotide pools.

D002467 Cell Nucleus Within a eukaryotic cell, a membrane-limited body which contains chromosomes and one or more nucleoli (CELL NUCLEOLUS). The nuclear membrane consists of a double unit-type membrane which is perforated by a number of pores; the outermost membrane is continuous with the ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM. A cell may contain more than one nucleus. (From Singleton & Sainsbury, Dictionary of Microbiology and Molecular Biology, 2d ed) Cell Nuclei,Nuclei, Cell,Nucleus, Cell

D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).
