Trioxalen (trimethylpsoralen) plus near-u.v. light, a potent inhibitor of DNA and RNA synthesis, inhibits the induction of ornithine decarboxylase in stationary-phase V79 fibroblasts. It does not affect the translation of pre-existing mRNA. The method, in view of its high degree of specificity and precise timing, is a better choice for inhibiting RNA synthesis than the commonly used chemical inhibitors and precursor analogues.

Infected Cells

Infection of Escherichia coli by R23 results in a marked inhibition of rRNA synthesis. Both 16 S and 23 S RNA are inhibited with maximal inhibition occurring at 30 min. Inhibition of 4 S RNA is not as profound. DNA synthesis is also inhibited after R23 infection although infected cells continue to divide for about one generation (45–60 min) after infection.
