title: URACIL: FAILURE TO RESTORE DNA SYNTHESIS WHILE RELIEVING 5-FLUOROURACIL-INDUCED INHIBITION.
abstract: Growth inhibition of Bacillus cereus by 5-fluorouracil is abolished by the addition of uracil without the inhibition of DNA synthesis being relieved. The growth rate, protein, and RNA content of cells grown in the presence of 5-fluorouracil and uracil are unaffected until the cells contain only about 25 percent of their normal DNA content.
