Abstract

Three protein synthesis inhibitors, puromycin, cycloheximide and anisomycin were found to increase the rate of spreading of Swiss-3T3 cells after 1 h incubation in the presence of low concentrations of serum. Data from experiments with anisomycin suggest that this effect is roughly proportional to the extent of inhibition of protein synthesis.
