Abstract

1,5–3 hours after a single γ-irradiation of a rat the common pattern of EcoRI-restriction is unchanged but the parts some restriction fragments varied. The concentration of a fragments 2300 and 1500 base pairs rises in 2–3,5 times, fragment 345 base pair declines in 5–10 times. In a thymus the variations are occured after 3 hours, in a spleen – 1,5 hours after γ-irradiation with a future tendency to normalization.
