we investigated the effects of the branched-chain amino acids -- valine , leucine and isoleucine -- or their keto analogs , the branched-chain keto acids -- alpha-ketoisovaleric acid , alpha-ketoisocaproic acid and alpha-keto-beta-methylvaleric acid -- on protein synthesis and secretion by monolayers of rabbit hepatocytes incubated with [ 35s ] methionine in pulse-chase and steady-state experiments .
