The in vivo incorporation of [ 3 H]phenylalanine into an apparent 15 kDa prosomatostatin was observed in the hypothalamus of rats injected with the labeled amino acid in the third ventricle. Precursor‐product relationships were established between this newly synthesized material and both somatostatin‐28 and ‐14.
