Abstract:
In human breast cancers, assays on thymidine kinase activity revealed the synthesis of large amounts of d-TTP. This fact suggested the presence of thymidylate kinase closely associated with thymidine kinase. Results obtained with experimental tumors were quite different. These tumors appeared inadequate for the study on thymidine metabolism in mammary cancers.
