The incorporation of 3H‐labeled deoxyadenosine and deoxyguanosine into nucleic acids by cultured Novikoff rat hepatoma cells is about 80% into RNA and 20% into DNA. The pathways of incorporation have been elucidated in studies with whole cells and cell‐free extracts. Deoxyadenosine is very rapidly deaminated to deoxyinosine. Most of the deoxyinosine formed by whole cells is transported out of the cells and accumulates in the medium. A portion of the deoxyinosine, and deoxyguanosine are phosphorolyzed by purine nucleoside phosphorylase to hypoxanthine and guanine, respectively. The latter are subsequently converted by hypoxanthine‐guanine phosphoribosyl transferase to IMP and GMP, respectively. Incorporation of the purine deoxyribonucleosides into DNA is mainly via this pathway and the subsequent reduction of ADP and GDP by ribonucleoside reductase, although a small proportion of the deoxyadenosine and deoxyguanosine taken up by the cells seems to be directly phosphorylated to dAMP and dGMP, respectively. Deoxyguanosine is incorporated only into guanine residues of RNA and DNA. Deoxyadenosine is also mainly incorporated into guanine residues of RNA and DNA, although the radioactivity of deoxyadenosine in the acid‐soluble pool is almost exclusively associated with ATP. A similar labeling pattern is observed with labeled deoxyinosine, inosine or hypoxanthine. The pyrimidine deoxyribonucleosides, on the other hand, are specific precursors for their respective bases in DNA.
