| pubmed-article:2985778 | pubmed:abstractText | FSH plus insulin, cortisol, and thyroxine (IFT) stimulated incorporation of dense isotope-containing (2H, 13C, 15N) amino acids into soluble 125I-labelled hCG binding sites. Evidence of new synthesis of binding sites appeared as early as 3 h after the beginning of the pulse-labelling period. By 48 h the majority of detectable soluble 125I-labelled hCG binding sites appeared to be newly synthesized. Studies with FSH + IFT and puromycin indicated that FSH + IFT stimulated synthesis of new LH/hCG binding sites, and that internalization or degradation of LH/hCG binding sites may also require protein synthesis. | lld:pubmed |
