Sulfate incorporation by emryonic chick pelvic rudiments requires protein synthesis.
The incorporation is also dependent on the presence in the incubation medium of both Na+ and K+, and is inhibitable by ouabain.
In the presence of Na+ and K+, the addition of amino acids to the incubation medium stimulates sulfate incorporation. If other monovalent cations are substituted for either Na+ or K+, sulfate incorporation in the absence of amino acids is decreased and stimulation by addition of amino acids is greatly reduced or eliminated.
The possibilities that the Na+ and K+ requirements are due to the participation by these ions in protein synthesis and in transport into the cell of amino acids, sulfate and glucose are discussed.

N-Acetylneuraminic acid has been identified in human tears; other accompanying sialic acids have not been found. N-Acetylneuraminic acid has not been found free, but found. A remarkable release is easily produced by hydrolysis with 0.1 N HCl or 0.1 N H2SO4 at 80° and with neuraminidase (sialidase) (N-acetylneuraminate glycohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.18) at pH 5.5 and 37°, after about 45 min.
Paper electrophoresis shows its main distribution in a fraction of the pherogram with a mobility of −3.8·10−5 cm2 sec−1 V−1 which would correspond to the α-seroglobulins.
The mean concentration in tears is determined, as well as that of hexoses and hexosamines, and a discussion is made about its biochemical signification.

In alkyl sulfate detergents the M- and N-group antigen mucoproteins having a molecular weight of about 106 Daltons dissociate into subunits. Their molecular weight at infinite dilution was determined as 3·104 Daltons. At finite mucoprotein concentrations a dynamic association-dissociation equilibrium between the subunits was observed. On dissolving in dimethylformamide-formic acid mixture (9:1 v/v), the M and N mucoprotein macromolecules disintegrated into fragments with a molecular weight of about 9·104 Daltons. Removal of the detergent from the dissociated mucoprotein resulted in reaggregation of the subunits, and the material exhibited unchanged serological activity. The observations suggest that in water solutions the subunits are kept in aggressive forms by hydrophobic bonds. This may be caused by asymmetric distribution of hydrophilic residues (sugars, amino sugars, and sialic acid) along the polypeptide backbone of the subunits.

Since improvements in the isolation procedure have resulted in heparin of high biological activity, the question of species difference has been reexamined. We have isolated heparin from dog, beef, hog, sheep and human tissue by selective fractionation with quaternary ammonium compounds. Based on our results we would suggest that heparins isolated from various mammalian species are biologically, chemically and physically similar. The biological variations previously observed may well be a result of different degree of purity in the heparin isolated.
