Abstract

An analysis was made by electron-microscopic radioautography of the distribution of silver grains over storage granules of A(2) and B cells after incubation of isolated guinea-pig islets of Langerhans for 17h in the presence of [(3)H]tryptophan. A significant concentration of labelled proteins was present in the A(2) cell, but not in the B-cell granules.
