Abstract
Significant changes occurred in the rate of synthesis of several polypeptides in two different Drosophilacell lines following exposure to the steroid hormone, β-ecdysone. For peptide 7/8, the synthetic rate increased by a factor of 10 in line S3 and by a factor of 1.3 in line MDR. In hormone-sensitive hybrids the rate increased by a factor of 3–4.5. For peptide 10 the synthetic rate decreased by a factor of 8 in line S3 but increased by a factor of 2 in line MDR. In hormone-sensitive hybrids the synthetic rate increased by a factor of 2–3. In hormone-insensitive cell lines no change in the rate of peptide synthesis occurred in the presence of hormone.This publication has 11 references indexed in Scilit:
