Abstract

The amino acid composition has been determined for two of the five subunits of the crayfish lipovitellin. In addition the molecular weight of each subunit has also been ascertained. Most importantly it is demonstrated that following in vitro incubation radioactive amino acids are incorporated into each of three purified subunits. These data strongly support the suggestion that the vitellogenic ovary of the crayfish is capable of in situ synthesis of lipovitellin.

## Abstract Electrophoretically pure subunits were obtained from the lipovitellin (LV) of the intertidal crab, __Pachygrapsus crassipes__. The molecular weights of these subunits were determined. In addition, it was demonstrated that the ovaries of __Pachygrapsus__, incubated __in vitro__, incorpor
