Effect of X rays on protein synthesis and RNA synthesis in adenovirus-infected cells
Abstract
Ionizing radiation exerts a deteriorating effect on the rate of protein and RNA synthesis in HeLa cells. This effect is higher in cells infected with adenovirus, thus pointing to a higher radiosensitivity of viral syntheses compared with the cellular ones.
