Abstract
RECENT evidence suggests that protein synthesis is necessary before vitamin D can affect Ca transport in the intestine. Thus the vitamin D-stimulated absorption of Ca is inhibited by actinomycin D (ref. 1), and further, the vitamin increases the incorporation in the intestine of orotic acid into nuclear RNA (ref. 2 and unpublished results of D. E. M. L., P. W. W., E. K., and D. C. Barker).
