We describe a rapid and simple method for measuring protein degradation in bacteria. After cells have incorporated [l-"Clleucine, they are washed and resuspended in a medium containing unlabelled leucine. After an incubation period, the cell suspensions are treated with chloramine-T to decarboxylate
Investigations of genetic diseases such as cystic fibrosis, a-1-antitrypsin deficiency, phenylketonuria, mitochondrial acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiencies, and many others have shown that enhanced proteolytic degradation of mutant proteins is a common molecular pathological mechanism. Detailed studi
