Abstract:1. The incorporation of [(14)C]phenylalanine into the protein of microsomes obtained from an androgen-dependent transplantable prostatic tumour has been investigated. 2. The incorporation of [(14)C]ATP into the RNA of the nuclei from the same tumour has also been examined. 3. The castration of the host animal depresses the incorporation of both labelled compounds on subsequent incubation in vitro. 4. The uptake of phenylalanine can be markedly stimulated by polyuridylic acid only in tumours obtained from castr… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
