ABSTRACT
In isolated cell nuclei of pig thymus malathion, S-1,2-bis(ethoxycarbonyl)-ethyl-O,O-dimethyldithiophosphate inhibited both initiation and elongation of all three classes of nuclear RNA polymerases; proflavin was used as an inhibitor of initiation, and actinomycin, as an inhibitor of elongation.

ABSTRACT
Malathion decreased polymerase activity of cell nuclei and inhibited RNA synthesis in cultured lymphocytes. The mechanism of action of this compound at the cellular level is suggested.
