Inhibitors of Nucleic Acid Synthesis Biophysical and Biochemical Aspects / by H. Kersten, W. Kersten.

During the last decade physical and chemical methods have improved rapidly - a fact which allowed the mode of action of antibiotics to be studied - and many biochemically-oriented scientists have devoted their research to the following questions: 1. What is the metabolic pathway that is inhibited se...
