Abstract
Radioactive phosphate is incorporated into the pentosenucleic acid of cat-brain slices respiring in a Krebs-Ringer bicarbonate medium containing glucose and P32. This was demonstrated by measuring the specific activity of the constituent nucleotides isolated by paper chromatography. The incorporation is abolished by the addition of cyanide to the medium.Keywords
