    Abstract:
    In the process of virus-induced interferon production, two kinds of RNA appear in the cells. One of them induces production by the recipient cells of interferon with the species-specificity of the latter cells (interferon-inducing RNA), and the other is translated by the recipient cells pre-treated with actinomycin D into interferon with the species-specificity of the donor cells of RNA (interferon mRNA). The interferon-inducing RNA appears 20-30 minutes after virus induction and shows maximal activity after 1 hour. Its formation is not influenced by cycloheximide or actinomycin D. This RNA is assumed to be a transcriptive intermediate form of viral RNA. Interferon mRNA appears in the cells 1 hour after virus induction and shows maximal activity after 6-8 hours. Its synthesis is inhibited by cycloheximide and actinomycin D.
