Syntheses of rRNA, 5.8S, 5S and tRNA are inhibited equally by 8-methoxypsoralen phototreatment of Tetrahymena thermophila.

Treatment of the ciliated protozoan Tetrahymena thermophila with 8-methoxypsoralen combined with long wavelength ultraviolet irradiation (UVA, lambda approximately 360 nm) resulted in a dose dependent equal inhibition of the synthesis of rRNA, 5.8S, 5S and tRNA. Similar results were obtained with 3-...
