Abstract
In the presence of canavanine and the absence of arginine, superinfected Raji cells synthesize a limited spectrum of proteins (primary proteins). After the removal of canavanine at 8 h post infection, the cells proceed after a lag phase of 2-3 h to synthesize a second group of proteins. The appearance of these proteins can be prevented by addition of actinomycin-D to the chase media, suggesting that active primary proteins are required for the synthesis of new mRNA coding for the secondary proteins.
