The local cell membrane deformation as the first induction stage / O. Karpov // Біополімери і клітина. – 1998. – Т.14, №6. – С. 561-566.https://dspace.nuft.edu.ua/handle/123456789/8003A hypothetic mechanism of the external effect of viruses, synthetic polyaniones, double-stranded RNAs, and synthetic double-stranded polyribonucleotides upon a cell is explained. This effect is known to be followed by the α/β-interferons induction. Double-stranded RNAs and polynucleotides inducing such process are thought to change their conformation in an outer ionic perimembrane layer of cells and to induce the specific local deformation of cell membranes giving a signal for the α/β-interferons induction. In the case of viruses such a membrane deformation appears on the stage of virus penetration into the cell. The α/β-interferons inducers of intercalating nature are proposed to cause the interferonogenesis in vivo forming complexes with exogenic RNA molecules and stabilizing their double-stranded sites with a partial complementarity.otherінтерфероніндукторвіруси поліаніонидволанцюгова РНКінтеркаляториinterferoninducerviruses polyanionsdouble-stranded RNAintercalatorsкафедра біотехнології і мікробіологіїArticle
