Abstract
Abstract: Proteins within cells vary widely in their rates of degradation. These rates appear to have evolved to regulate flow of substrates through metabolic pathways. Protein half-lives in vivo correlate with their sensitivity to various proteases in vitro . In mammalian tissues, proteins with acidic isoelectric points are degraded more rapidly than neutral or basic ones. Isoelectric point and subunit molecular weight are independent factors influencing protein degradative rates.
