Dr. Farrar has been successful in isolating, purifying, and                     sequencing the insulin from the pancreas of the bullfrog.  Now                  she wants to characterize it biochemically.  Then using a                       hepatocyte culture system developed from the bullfrog, an attempt               will be made to develop a bioassay for amphibian insulin.  Once                 this has been done, then studies to examine whether or not the                  insulin will affect glycogen synthesis will follow.  The results                will be compared with those from other vertebrates.                                                                                                             The significance of this work is three-fold.  It will contribute                to our understanding of the relationship between structure and                  function.  It will clarify the role of insulin om larval                        development and metamorphosis will also be examined.
