Identification in skeletal muscle of a distinct extracellular pool of amino acids, and its role in protein synthesis

Identification in skeletal muscle of a distinct extracellular pool of amino acids, and its role in protein synthesis

R C Hider et al. Biochem J. 1971 Mar.

Abstract

1. The kinetics of radioactive labelling of extra- and intra-cellular amino acid pools and protein of the extensor digitorum longus muscle were studied after incubations with radioactive amino acids in vitro. 2. The results indicated that an extracellular pool could be defined, the contents of which were different from those of the incubation medium. 3. It was concluded that amino acids from the extracellular pool, as defined in this study, were incorporated directly into protein.
