60 – Models of Protein Metabolism

摘要: This chapter focuses on models of protein metabolism for muscle and intestine. Methods to measure turnover rates in various organs tissues are important investigators involved surgical research because many disease states seen patients associated with significant changes synthesis degradation rates. Many methods used based the incorporation radiolabeled amino acids into proteins. When such techniques used, it is understand concept precursor specific radioactivity. The radioactivity describes ratio between unlabeled can be expressed as dpm/mole. amount incorporated a reflects not only rate but acid well.
