additional information | overexpression in cancer cell lines leads to increased cell sensitivity to several cytotoxic nucleoside analogues, expression of wild-type and mutant enzyme in an osteosarcoma cell line utilizing a replication-deficient retroviral vector reveals that the localization of the enzyme in cytosol or nucleus is not important for cell sensitivity and bystander cell killing | Drosophila melanogaster |
R247S | site-directed mutagenesis, mutation abolishes nuclear import of the enzyme, the mutant enzyme is localized in the cytosol | Drosophila melanogaster |
Inhibitors | Comment | Organism | Structure |
---|---|---|---|
additional information | increased cell sensitivity to nucleoside analogues E-5-(2-bromovinyl)-2'-deoxyuridine and 1-beta-D-arabinofuranosylthymine in recombinant cancer cells overexpressing the enzyme in the nucleus or cytosol | Drosophila melanogaster |
