POSSIBILITY OF DEPRESSING THE TOBACCO MOSAIC TITER VIRUS WITHOUT DISTURBING NUCLEIC ACID SYNTHESIS IN THE CELL
Abstract
The analysis showed that hydrolyzates of the yeast RNA and viral RNA lowered the synthesis of cellular nucleic acids. RNA hydrolyzate separated from healthy tobaccos increased the content of the cellular nucleic acid. Consequently, by a definite composition of the introduced RNA hydrolyzates it is possible to regulate the direction of the synthesis of nucleic acids either upward or downward. It is therefore possible to select such a composition of a RNA hydrolyzate that will permit to reduce the synthesis of the viral nucleic acid to a minimum and at the same time to increase the content of the cellular nucleic acid in the infected cell.
