Abstract
1. 1. Erythrocyte-free Plasmodium lophurae (avian malaria) directly incorporate carbon 14 from arginine, lysine, and methionine into the parasite proteins; malaria-infected cells incorporate 14C-proline mainly into the proteins of the parasitized cell. 2. 2. 14C-Glutamic acid is principally metabolized to 14COa by the free parasite and is not involved to a large degree in the biosynthesis of proteins.
