D-Malate: Effects on Activity of L-Malate Dehydrogenase in Developing Sea Urchin Embryos

Abstract
Sea urchin embryos grown in salt water containing L-malate showed a pattern of development of L-malate dehydrogenase which did not differ from that of embryos grown in s lt water. However, embryos grown in 10-3M D-malate for 6 or 12 hours had one additional band of L-malate dehydrogenase that was not present in control embryos of the same age.
