The effects of the glucose antimetabolite, 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2-DG), on DNA repair (assayed by unscheduled DNA synthesis) and on the repair of potentially-lethal damage (assayed by cell viability after irradiation) have been studied in X-irradiated respiratory-deficient yeast cells (auxotroph for 5'thymidine-monophosphate). Experimental results show that: (a) both these phenomena can be inhibited by 2-DG; (b) the repair of potentially-lethal damage occurs after the unscheduled DNA synthesis is almost complete; and (c) the repair of potentially-lethal damage can be inhibited by 2-DG even after the completion of the unscheduled DNA synthesis.
