1. 1. The incorporation in vivo of 14C-labeled compounds into 2-aminoethylphosphonic acid and 2-amino-3-phosphonopropionic acid in Tetrahymena indicated a glycolytic intermediate precursor. 2. 2. Incorporation of 32P from phosphoenolpyruvic acid and from 2-amino-3-phosphonoprophonic acid into 2-amin...
