title: Non-parallel secretion of newly synthesized rat pancreatic proteins after feeding a diet containing raw soybean flour.
abstract: The relative rate of secretion of rat pancreatic proteins was studied in vivo using a double label method. Rats were injected with [3H]leucine and after different time intervals with [14C]leucine. At a fixed time after administration of the second precursor the animals were killed, and the pancreatic proteins were separated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The dpm of tritium to dpm of 14C ratio of several identified enzymes was assessed. The percentage secretion of a newly synthesized secretory protein was derived from the difference between the actual 3H/14C ratio and the 3H/14C ratio that was found for non-secretory proteins. In pancreata of rats fed with a standard diet several identified proteins, viz. three trypsinogens, chymotrypsinogen and three amylases were secreted in "parallel". When a diet containing raw soybean flour was fed, the secretory pattern for the amylases differed from that of the other proteins.
