Incorporation in vivo of \(^{14}\)C-labelled amino acids into the proteins of mitochondrial ribosomes from Neurospora crassa sensitive to cycloheximide and insensitive to Chloramphenicol

Radioactive amino acids were incorporated in vivo into N eurospora crassa cells, and the mitochondrial ribosomes were isolated. The incorporation of radioactivity into the proteins of these ribosomes was inhibited by cycloheximide, but not by chloramphenicol. It is therefore concluded that these proteins are synthesized on the cycloheximide sensitive and chloramphenicol insensitive cytoplasmic ribosomes
