The synthesis of ribosomal proteins has been examined during growth and encystment of Acanthamoeba castellanii. Cells have been radiolabelled with [35S]methionine and ribosomal proteins have been extracted either from ribosomes or from total cell extracts. The results show that there is less synthesis of ribosomal proteins relative to total cell proteins soon after transfer of growing cells into non-nutrient medium, suggesting that the synthesis of all ribosomal proteins is under coordinate cont
