The onset and rates of synthesis of the major classes of nucleic acids have been extensively studied during the development of whole frog embryos (reviews by Brown, 1965; Gurdon, 1967 a ). Such information is of interest because nucleic acids are the immediate products of genes, and their rates of synthesis therefore provide a direct measure of changes in gene activity. To date nucleic acid synthesis in parts of frog embryos has been analysed mainly by methods which do not distinguish different classes of RNA (e.g. Bachvarova & Davidson, 1966; Flickinger, Miyagi, Moser & Rollins, 1967). Since embryos consist of many different cell types, it is important to know to what extent the pattern of nucleic acid synthesis observed in the whole embryo is true for its individual regions, and in particular for one differentiating cell type.
