Changes in the amounts of acid-soluble nucleotides during embryonic development of the encysted egg of the brine shrimp, Artemia salina, have been determined. Significant quantities of diguanosine tetraphosphate, the most abundant compound in the nucleotide pool, are apparently not utilized until hatching, at which time the amount falls precipitously. Diguanosine triphosphate, a homologue of th...
