The action of low-intensity red light with λ=633 nm (a He−Ne laser, a filament lamp with light filters a dye-laser pumped by a Cu laser) on the intensity of nucleic-acid synthesis in HeLa cells 1.5 hours after irradiation has been studied. It has been shown that the DNA synthesis is stimulated similarly after irradiation both by the He−Ne laser and by an ordinary source. The RNA synthesis intensity does not alter in both cases. A high-repetition-rate radiation at λ=633 nm acts in the opposite manner: it stimulates the RNA synthesis and the DNA synthesis remains constant. The action spectra of the DNA and RNA synthesis stimulation by continuous light in the range (570÷693) nm are presented.
