title: On the growth metabolism in chick skeletal muscle. A study on the alterations in proteins, glycogen and nucleic acid levels.
abstract: Biochemical estimations of proteins, carbohydrates and nucleic acids have been made at eleven stages during the post-embryonic growth of six skeletal muscles in chick. Stimulation of protein synthesis by carbohydrates if confirmed in our study on glycogen and NaOH-extractable acidic protein levels. The role of nucleic acids, RNA and DNA, in protein synthesis has been discussed in the light of nucleic acid inhibition by HCl-extractable basic proteins.
