The relationship between extracellular amino acids and protein synthesis is altered during axonal regeneration. Academic Article uri icon

Overview

abstract

  • The incorporation of [3H]proline into proteins of goldfish retinal ganglion cells was measured by light microscopic autoradiography of isolated retinas that had been incubated in labeled medium under pulse-chase conditions. It was found that the composition of the immediate precursor pool for protein synthesis is more directly influenced by extracellular amino acids in regenerating cells 14 d after axotomy than in sham-operated controls.
