In vitro lipid synthesis by lathyrogen-treated L-929 fibroblasts.
Aside from cholesterol, cholesterol esters and lyso-lecithin, the de novo lipid synthesic mechanisms which operate in cells grown in the presence of beta-amino-propionitrile are largely depressed and suggest that there may be in operation specific metabolic control mechanisms for regulation of cellular lipid composition.
