Abstract

l-Lysine (2mm) causes an increase (mean 60%) in the rate of gluconeogenesis from lactate in isolated liver cells. The effect is of a catalytic nature. No other amino acid has the same effect, though ornithine is slightly active. The effect is additional to the stimulatory effects of oleate and of dibutyryl cyclic AMP.
