The Effects of Aflatoxin B1 in vivo on Membrane—Ribosome Association

The effects of aflatoxin B(1) on the endoplasmic reticulum of rat liver has been examined in vivo. Electron microscopy has shown a disorganization and degranulation of rough surfaced membrane under these conditions and evidence is presented that this is a primary effect of the toxin, and results fro...

description The effects of aflatoxin B(1) on the endoplasmic reticulum of rat liver has been examined in vivo. Electron microscopy has shown a disorganization and degranulation of rough surfaced membrane under these conditions and evidence is presented that this is a primary effect of the toxin, and results from the direct attack of the aflatoxin on the steroid-dependent ribosome binding sites on the membrane. A technique is described by which the presence of degranulated rough membrane may be detected in microsomal preparations.
