AB -It is estimated that the growing cell culture of sycamore consumes approximately 50% of its metabolic energy for protein synthesis. This finding indicates that (1) the plant cell culture is a highly efficient system in which most of energy obtained from respiration can be accounted for; (2) protein synthesis is indeed an expensive process and needs to be regulated.
