摘要：
Thymidylate synthetase catalyses the formation of thymidine monophosphate from deoxyuridine monophosphate. Purified thymidylate synthetase can be assayed radiochemically using labelled deoxyuridine monophosphate as substrate, but cells are impervious to deoxyuridine monophosphate and so intracellular thymidylate synthetase activity cannot be assayed in this way. In this paper we describe the assay of intracellular thymidylate synthetase activity in intact cells using labelled 2'-deoxyuridine. The assay showed linear kinetics with respect to time, concentration of 2'-deoxyuridine, and cell concentration. 5-fluoro-2'-deoxyuridine inhibited intracellular thymidylate synthetase activity measured with this assay by 50% at 5 nM. Cell growth was inhibited by 50% at 6 nM 5-fluoro-2'-deoxyuridine. The assay was specific for thymidylate synthetase and enabled measurement of thymidylate synthetase activity in situ in intact cells.
