The intensity of (14C)leucine incorporation into heart, liver, brain, muscle, and blood plasma proteins in ground squirrels under deep artificial hypothermia has been studied. It was shown that the intensity of protein synthesis decreased sharply under these conditions. Insignificant incorporation of (14C)leucine into proteins was observed during the first two horus after the onset of hypothermia and then ceased completely.
