Einstein
was
INTO
Savoie
and
College
incuibated
at 37 C. in open
Erlenmeyer
flasks
with
glycine
2C14
for 4 hours
and
the
rate of glycine
incorporation
into heme and into globin was determined.
The
ratio between
the rate of incorporation
into heme and into glycine
was
found to be almost constant
for all immature
red
cells although
the
biosynthetic activity
of reticulocytes
was much
less
than
that
of nucleated
red
cells.
The addition
of cobalt changed
this constant
ratio by inhibiting
heme
synthesis
without
changing
the incorporation
into glycine.
The effects of substrate concentration,
method
of preparing
the bone
marrow
suspension1
temperature
and
dine of incubation
were
examlned.-A.
