... proteins By the way, I have a question: There are many kind of CHO (eg. CHO K1, CHo dhfr-) available commercially, but they all lack of biosynthetic pathway of proline. Why isn't CHO which can grow in medium no proline used ?

... production in isolated Leydig cells. Because oxytocin synthesis was found to be cycloheximide-sensitive, we conclude that Leydig cells possess the biosynthetic machinery necessary to manufacture oxytocin. The isolated oxytocin peptide was purified by HPLC with fraction collection followed by polyclonal-Ab ...
