Abstract
1. 1. A pulse-chase autoradiographic study of incorporation of 3H-leucine into body-wall, digestive and reproductive tissue of virgin adult Panagrellus redivivus demonstrates both tissue and sex-specific patterns of protein biosynthesis and turnover. 2. 2. Female body wall has a higher rate of protein synthesis and turnover than male body wall. 3. 3. Uptake of leucine into macromolecule in the digestive tissue is more rapid in males than females, as is the rate of turnover. 4. 4. The ovary is more rapidly labelled than the testis, with a much more rapid turnover rate.
