Fig. 3. Comparison of alanine transport rate in embryos and larvae of L. pictus in the presence and absence of the protein synthesis inhibitor, emetine (see Materials and methods for details). For all alanine transport measurements, the r2 values from the linear regressions of the alanine transport rate with time ranged from 0.93 to 0.99. Open bars, without emetine; solid bars, with emetine. (A) Alanine transport rates for stages of development measured before the start of feeding treatment experiments. BL, blastula; GA, gastrula: PL, prism larva; EP, early pluteus. (B) Alanine transport rates in fed and unfed larvae. Values are means ± s.e. slope of the slope of transport rate. (C) Primary data to show comparison of alanine transport rates in the presence and absence of emetine (fed larvae, 16-day-old). Slopes and intercepts were not significantly different (ANOVA). Open circles + broken line, no emetine (r2=0.95); solid circles + solid line, with emetine (r2=0.93).
