Kanamycin inhibited p32 incorporation to nucleic acid and protein, and S35 incorporation to CCl3COOH-Sol. and -insoluble (protein) fractions by the kanamycin-sensitive cells. No inhibition was observed with kanamycin-resistant cells, which rather showed higher rates of P32 and S35 incorporations in absence of kanamycin than the sensitive cells. The resistant cells were also characterized by having a higher ratio of ribonucleic acid/deoxyribonucleic acid.
