Electrophoretic Patterns of Proteins in Spanish Mackerel (Scomberomorus maculatus)

摘要

The biochemical variations and electrophoretic patterns found in tissues of Spanish mackerel using starch gel electrophoresis are reported. The examination was performed in order to (1) find biochemical variants which may be useful to identify stocks and (2) estimate the amount of genetic variation in this species. Ten of the 44 loci studied were found to be polymorphic. The variant systems were alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase, lactate dehydrogenase (B locus), malate dehydrogenase, malic dehydrogenase, malic enzyme (two variant systems), glutamic dehydrogenase, esterase, peptidase, adenoside deaminase, and phosphoglucose isomerase.
