Abstract
It is apparent, even from a cursory examination of the literature, that there has been a tremendous application of isotopic methods to various problems concerned with amino acid and protein metabolism. In this chapter an attempt will be made to review the chief aspects of amino acid biosynthesis and catabolism which have been approached by using radioactive isotopes.
