Abstract
Summary
The in vivo incorporation of 14C-amino acids into circulating serum albumin was diminished in pantothenic acid-deficient rats. However, this deficiency induced no detectable changes in the liver polysomal profiles or the activities of the liver microsomal and soluble supernatant fractions in in vitro protein synthesis. In preliminary studies, indications were obtained that the intracellular transport of newly synthesized proteins was impaired in liver cells from pantothenic acid-deficient rats.
