Abstract
Incorporation of phenylalanine into protein by ribosomes from the heart muscle of rats is decreased when the ribosomes are from alloxan-diabetic animals. Protein synthesis is increased when the ribosomes are obtained from nondiabetic animals I hour after treatment with insulin. The change due to insulin appears to be an alteration in the function of the ribosome.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
