| Abstract: | - 1.1. A pulse-chase autoradiographic study of incorporation of 3H-leucine into body-wall, digestive and reproductive tissue of virgin adult Panagrellus redivivus demonstrates both tissue and sex-specific patterns of protein biosynthesis and turnover.
- 2.2. Female body wall has a higher rate of protein synthesis and turnover than male body wall.
- 3.3. Uptake of leucine into macromolecule in the digestive tissue is more rapid in males than females, as is the rate of turnover.
- 4.4. The ovary is more rapidly labelled than the testis, with a much more rapid turnover rate.
