Incorporation of L-O-ethylthreonine into chick muscle protein

Abstract: While investigating the physiological disposition of the new drug ~-0-ethyl-14C-threonine in chicks, a high level of radioactivity was observed in muscle and moderate levels in other tissues. The nature of this radioactivity in muscle was further explored by fractionating the muscle tissue into RNA, DNA, lipid, glycogen, and proteins. Most of the radioactivity was found to be associated with proteins. The protein fraction was subjected to intensive investigation

“…A rather rare case (Hiremath et al, 1971) of direct incorporation into tissue is that of L-0-ethyl-[1-l4 C]threonine, which is an isoleucine antagonist, and is incorporated intact in muscle protein when fed in capsules (7.5 mg dose; specific activity =0.15 juCi/mg) to chicks. Three days after dosing, muscle still contained =70% of the ingested radioactivity.…”
