“…8 [53,74,119]. During this initial time period depletion of the intracellular pool of flee amino acids [74, 126,127] and degradation of RNA proceeds at considerably faster rates than dogs protein degradation. This indicates that during this time the increase of protein turnover must be due to rearrangement of the protein composition of the cells in order to adapt their set of enzymes to starvation conditions [31,80,81,[128][129][130][131].…”
