## Abstract The proliferation dynamics of chicken embryo cells after transformation by Rous sarcoma virus, Schmidt‐Ruppin strain (RSV‐SR) has been investigated in vitro. The optimal schedule for serial cultivation for normal as well as transformed cells was to subcultivate the cells every third day

✦ Synopsis
Abstract
The removal of serum from the medium of uninfected fibroblasts decreased the rate of uptake of uridine, 2‐deoxyglucose, α‐aminoisobutyrate and thymidine. Its subsequent addition rapidly and reversibly stimulated the uptake of all the nutrients but thymidine and this response was not inhibited by treatment of the cells with cycloheximide. The cycloheximide insensitive, rapid increase in the rate of transport has been designated post‐translational control. The nutrient transport systems in chick embryo fibroblasts transformed in vitro with avian sarcoma viruses and virus‐induced cultured chicken tumor cells do not respond to serum removal or addition. Two possible levels for the control of nutrient transport, i.e., mitogen receptor occupancy and mitogen‐induced activation of the transport system, are presented to explain these observations.
