Delta-aminolevulinic acid synthetase: induction in embryonic chick liver by glucagon
Abstract:
Glucagon elicits a twofold increase in delta-aminolevulinic acid synthetase activity in the livers of 18-day-old chick embryos. This rise occurs when RNA synthesis is inhibited, but is prevented when protein synthesis is blocked. Cyclic adenosine monophosphate appears not to be involved.
