Abstract

Representative of Marshall Nirenberg's early work as part of the Biochemical Genetics group at NIH, and specifically Nirenberg's experiments involving gene expression in neurons, this article assesses the activities of marker enzymes in surface cultures of new born mouse brain cells, and in glial and nonbrain cell lines.
