The small molecular weight monodisperse nuclear RNA's are synthesized in contact‐inhibited cultures of 3T3 cells. The level of synthesis of these RNA's, and of ribosomal and transfer RNA's, appears to be only 8–20% of that observed in growing cultures. The synthesis of all of these relatively stable RNA species may thus be coordinately controlled.
