>Changes in nucleic acid and protein synthesis produced in the small intestine of the rat following wholebody x irradiation are described. Glycine-N/ sup 15/ was used as a tracer. Quantitative chemical data on radiationinduced changes in the rate of synthesis of protein and nucleic acids are correlated with quantitative biological data obtained under the same experimental conditions.
