1 The metabolism of ddAdo in the kinase-deficient mutants was found to be unchanged by comparison with that in parental cells; however, the inhibition of ddAdo deamination to 2",3"-dideoxyinosine (ddIno) by the adenosine deaminase inhibitor, 2"-deoxycoformycin, reduced ddAdo nucleotide formation in deoxycytidine kinase-deficient, adenosine kinase-deficient, and doubly kinase-deficient mutants by 42, 54, and 80%, respectively.
