Abstract excerpt
The proteolytic processing and secretion of a lysosomal enzyme, acid alpha-glucosidase, was studied by pulse-chase labeling with [35S]methionine in Tetrahymena thermophila CU-399 cells treated with ammonium chloride. This cell secreted a large amount of acid alpha-glucosidase into the cultured medium during starvation. The secretion was found to be repressed by addition of ammonium chloride (NH4Cl). Acid...
