Abstract
For a conclusive description of the action of radiation on single cells, many links between energy absorption and the inability to form a colony are still missing. Studies of physiologic responses of irradiated cells should be helpful in the determination of the events that ultimately may lead to cell death. As part of our investigation of metabolic processes in irradiated yeast cell (see preceding paper), it seemed worthwhile to test if — and possibly how — irradiation interferes with the regulation of enzyme synthesis.
