Thermosensitive deoxyribonucleic acid replication-defective mutants have been isolated by using an autoradiographic selection method. The mutants have been analyzed genetically and biochemically. Some of the mutants show thermosensitivity of in vitro deoxyribonucleic acid replication. These can be classified into three groups according to their behavior in in vitro complementation assays. This classification is congruent with that obtained by genetic mapping by using cotransduction frequencies with selected markers in P1 transduction analysis.

D008937 Mitomycins A group of methylazirinopyrroloindolediones obtained from certain Streptomyces strains. They are very toxic antibiotics used as ANTINEOPLASTIC AGENTS in some solid tumors. PORFIROMYCIN and MITOMYCIN are the most useful members of the group.
D009153 Mutagens Chemical agents that increase the rate of genetic mutation by interfering with the function of nucleic acids. A clastogen is a specific mutagen that causes breaks in chromosomes. Clastogen,Clastogens,Genotoxin,Genotoxins,Mutagen
D009154 Mutation Any detectable and heritable change in the genetic material that causes a change in the GENOTYPE and which is transmitted to daughter cells and to succeeding generations. Mutations
D009604 Nitrosoguanidines Nitrosylated derivatives of guanidine. They are used as MUTAGENS in MOLECULAR BIOLOGY research.
D001976 Bromouracil 5-Bromo-2,4(1H,3H)-pyrimidinedione. Brominated derivative of uracil that acts as an antimetabolite, substituting for thymine in DNA. It is used mainly as an experimental mutagen, but its deoxyriboside (BROMODEOXYURIDINE) is used to treat neoplasms. 5-Bromouracil,Bromuracil,5 Bromouracil
