✦ Synopsis


Induction of the primitive streak is correlated with specific qualitative and quantitative changes in protein synthesis in the component areas of chick blastoderm. Blastoderm embryos at the initial to intermediate primitive streak stage were labeled with L-[S] methionine. Radioactively labeled proteins separated by two-dimensional sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed differences in the number and density of spots among the component areas of the epiblast and hypoblast. Protein patterns of the area opaca, marginal zone and central area of the epiblast are very similar qualitatively but show distinct quantitative differences. A comparison between any of the component areas of the epiblast and the hypoblast in chick blastoderm embryos, however, reveals both qualitative and quantitative differences. A protein with a molecular weight of 30,000 unique to the component areas of the epiblast, and proteins with a molecular weight of 22,000 and 37,000 unique to the hypoblast are prominent and seem to be related to the initial appearance of the primitive streak.
