Abstract

Two categories of mitogen-induced mRNAs were defined in T lymphocytes. The type 1 messages (represented by c-myc) were regulated transcriptionally, and their expression seemed to be calmodulin dependent. The type 2 messages (ornithine decarboxylase, actin, and alpha-tubulin) were regulated posttranscriptionally through activation of protein kinase C.
