Abstract
The synthesis of immunoglobulin and of nuclear proteins has been studied in synchronized mouse myeloma cells of the C1 line. Synchronization has been obtained by a double thymidine block. C1 cells synthesize immunoglobulin at a relatively constant rate throughout the cell cycle except for mitosis, when a decrease in the rate of synthesis of total protein and of immunoglobulin is observed. Cell synchrony around mitosis is not sufficiently good to determine whether immunoglobulin is synthesized at all. Nuclear protein and in particular histones appear to be synthesized synchronously with DNA during the S phase of the cell cycle.

## Abstract A concept has been suggested that the role of immunogen is to stimulate resting cells to enter a phase of the cell cycle in which the synthesis of immunoglobulin is obligatory. This process conceivably involves the initial union of cells with immunogen followed by a subsequent transitio
