Abstract
Nucleate and anucleate halves of sea urchin eggs have seven and five forms of L-malic dehydrogenase, respectively. Fertilization results in reduction of the number of enzyme forms in both halves. The normal complement of seven isozymes in unfertilized eggs appears to be a synthesis of five soluble and four particulate forms. Reduction in the number of isozymes after fertilization takes place principally in solutble forms and appears to be under cytoplasmic control.This publication has 19 references indexed in Scilit:
