35S-sulphate incorporation into myelin sulphated mucopolysaccharides during rat brain development.

Rat brain myelin acid mucopolysaccharides (AMPS) incorporate 15%, 8%, 5.5% and 4% of total associated 35S-sulphate, 14, 21, 30 and 75 days after birth, respectively. The course of 35S-sulphate incorporation into total rat brain mucopolysaccharides, as well in those from myelin, had a similar feature with peak on the 2nd week and a significant decrease on the 3rd and 4th week postnatally.
