Multiple forms and inhibitors of uridine-cytidine kinase in neoplastic cells

1. Two forms (isozymes) of uridine (urd)-cytidine (cyd) kinase are present in the 30-50% ammonium sulfate fraction of the cytosols of L1210 ascites leukemia cells and a human malignant lymphoma. 2. These findings confirm those which described multiple forms of urd-cyd kinase in tumors with rapid growth rate. 3. Studied of inhibitors (nucleoside analogs) of urd-cyd kinase derived from L1210 and 6410 leukemia cells resulted in the finding of four possible inhibitors of this enzyme.
