N2 - Much of the 3H-methyl thymidine supplied to Pharbitis is degraded by thymidine phosphorylase (E.C.2.4.2.4.) to thymine and by other enzymes to β-amino isobutyric acid and presumably further to CO2 + water. At a certain time, adenosine application partially prevents this degradation at the level of thymidine to thymine, and also thymine to β-amino isobutyric acid.
