โฆ Synopsis
Using the harvesting method of synchronizing L cells, the relationship of RNA synthesis to DNA replication was studied by the use of selective inhibitors o, C RNA synthesis such as actinomycin D and chromomycin succinate. The synthesis of the early replicating DNA fraction is a process sensitive to the inhibition of RNA synthesis during the G1 period.

The rates of synthesis of various species of RNA were examined in synchronously growing HeLa cells as a function of stage in the cell generation cycle. The synthesis of each RNA species examined occurs throughout interphase, but undergoes a two-fold increase in rate during early S which is dependent
