Summary
Proteins from ribosomes of different tissues and animals were characterized by polyacrylamide disc electrophoresis. The proteins from ribosomes of different tissues from the same animal are qualitatively similar. The results of the experiments with ribosomes from the livers of different species of animals exhibit clear differences, in the electrophoretic patterns of the proteins.
