RESISTANCE AND CROSS-RESISTANCE OF ESCHERICHIA COLI MUTANTS TO ANTICANCER AGENTS. NITROGEN MUSTARD AND NITROMIN

The cross-resistance relationships among seven mutants of E. coli strain S selected for resistance to nitrogen mustard and nitromin are described. The data for two first-step nitromin-resistant mutants to seven radiomimetic chemicals, ultraviolet light, 6-diazo-5-oxo-L-norleucine, and penicillin are presented. Three qualitatively different radioresistant mutations were established on the basis of the cross-resistance to ultraviolet light and, hence, would be indistinguishable by this criterion alone.
