The fractional turnover rate of actin in skeletal muscle of adult rat has been estimated by both puls and continuous administration of U-14C-lysine.
Animals were sacrificed after 1-24 days and the specific radioactivity of free lysine and actin was determined.
Using the kinetics of precursor-product relationship, the half life of 10-20 days for actin has been calculated.
