STUDIES ON THE EFFECTS OF IRRADIATION OF CELLULAR PARTICULATES. II. THE EFFECT OF GAMMA RADIATION ON OXYGEN UPTAKE AND PHOSPHORYLATION

HENRY T. YOST JR. 1 and HOPE H. ROBSON 1

Data are presented which indicate that the phosphorylation mechanism is much more sensitive to gamma radiation than cytochrome oxidase. It is suggested that the utilization of substrates by enzymes within the particulate may protect these enzymes against ionizing radiation. Various consequences of these findings are discussed.
