ABSTRACT The parameters for the killing of Tetrahymena by 5-bromodeoxyuridine (BUdR) and near-ultraviolet light have been determined. Significant preferential killing by UV* of cells that have incorporated BUdR was obtained when the cells were irradiated in a nonnutrient buffer. UV alone was found to be toxic to cells irradiated in growth medium. Mutants defective in division at a restrictive temperature were isolated from mutagenized cultures that had been treated with BUdR and UV and from mutagenized cultures that had no such treatment. Results indicate that the number of temperature sensitive (ts) growth mutants can be increased five to six times using the BUdR/UV treatment. Data are presented that indicate differences in the frequency of occurrence of various types of ts mutants, with and without enrichment. A mutant that immediately stopped macromolecular synthesis and cell division upon being placed at the restrictive temperature was more resistant to BUdR/UV treatment than wild type by 1000-fold. Using the above techniques, BUdR-resistant mutants altered in the phosphorylation of thymidine have been isolated.
