In vitro Incorporation of Glycine-1- 14 C into Total Muscle Protein of Normal and Vitamin E-Deficient Rabbits. ∗

Abstract

Summary

Skeletal muscle slices and homo genates from control and vit E-deficient rabbits were incubated in the presence of glycine-1-¹⁴C. In both preparations vit E deficiency resulted in an increased glycine incorporation into total muscle protein which was accompanied by increased oxygen consumption.
