Abstract
Since thyroxine is known to decrease the efficiency with which phosphorylation is coupled to respiration, the possibility suggests itself that vitamin B12 may function in hyperthyroidism by restoration, in part at least, of the energy-requiring functions of impaired cells. This has now been examined by a study of the following conjugation systems: acetylation of p-aminobenzoic acid, benzoylation of glycine, and synthesis of glutathione.
