Inhibition of Amitrole-5-C14 Accumulation in Salmonella typhimurium by Purines
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 June 2017
Abstract
Amitrole (3-amino-1,2,4-triazole) is absorbed and actively bound to non-physiological sites in Salmonella typhimurium. Accumulation of amitrole is inhibited by purines; but the effect does not seem to explain adenine protection against growth inhibition by amitrole. Guanine, xanthine, and hypoxanthine cannot replace adenine in growth protection but do inhibit accumulation of amitrole in the bacterial cells.
