Figure 5From: Myosin heavy chain 2A and α-Actin expression in human and murine skeletal muscles at feeding; particularly amino acidsTime course changes in L-[U-14C]-phenylalanine incorporation into proteins. Confluent L6 cells were cultured in medium containing very low amounts of amino acids (0,14 mM) for 24 hours, and then refed in low (0,28 mM) or high (9 mM) concentration of total AA concentrations, with constant specific radioactivity of phenylalanine (40 μCi/μmol phe). Cells were harvested by TCA-precipitation of proteins. (* p< 0.01 vs. low AA).Back to article page
