Abstract

Lysine-ϵ-C¹⁴-labeled plasma proteins produced by the normal rat and the isolated perfused rat liver have been fractionated by preparative zone electrophoresis. The isolated perfused liver incorporates lysine-ϵ-C¹⁴ into the plasma albumin, alpha globulin, and beta globulin (including fibrinogen) fractions. No significant C¹⁴ incorporation into the trichloracetic acid-precipitable proteins of the gamma globulin fraction was observed.
