Age-related changes in the incorporation of [14-C] leucine into myofibrillar and sarcoplasmic proteins of red and white muscles of chicks.

Studies on the incorporation of DL-[1- 14-C] leucine into myosin, total myofibrillar protein and total sarcoplasmic protein have shown age-dependent alterations in the rate of synthesis of these protiens in red and white skeletal muscles of chicks. During the early phase of ex ovo development white muscle synthesizes significantly higher amounts of myofibrillar proteins, especially myosin, in comparison with red muscle. The rate of sarcoplasmic protein synthesis in red and white muscles one day after hatching is almost identical. The red muscle shows a markedly higher rate of sarcoplasmic protein synthesis from 10 days after hatching. The incorporation of amino acid into various protein fractions of both the muscle types decreases with advancing age. In adult chicks red muscle displays a higher ability to synthesize sarcoplasmic and myofibrillar proteins.

The incorporation of -14c from [1-14C] PALMITATE INTO GLUCOSE AND GLYCOGEN IN MICE.

The incorporation of -14C FROM [1-14C]palmitate into blood glucose and liver and kidney glycogen in postnatal mice has been studied. Incorporation of -14C FROM [1-14C]palmitate into blood glucose and hepatic glycogen is relatively high in suck ling mice. Incontrast, the incorporation into kidney glycogen is low in suckling mice and high in adults. The study indicates the possible utilization of palmitate for glucose synthesis.
