Abstract
Rabbit reticulocytes, separated into ten cell age groups by bovine serum albumin density-gradient sedimentation, were pulse-labelled with [14C]leucine in the presence of either puromycin dihydrochloride or aminoethyl-L-cysteine (a lysine analogue). Intracellular proteolysis of both the puromyucinyl-peptides and analogue-containing protein decreased with cell maturity.This publication has 19 references indexed in Scilit:
