The sarcoplasmic proteins of white muscle of an antarctic hemoglobin-free fish, Champsocephalus gunnari. 1979

G Hamoir, and N Gerardin-Otthiers

Laboratoire de Biochimie musculaire, Université de Liège, Belgium.

1. The protein composition of the sarcoplasm of Champsocephalus gunnari white muscle has been examined by ultracentrifugation and starch-gel electrophoresis. 2. The extracts have been fractionated by several methods in order to compare them more closely to similar extracts of other fish species and to isolate creatine kinase and the parvalbumins IV and V. 3. The creatine kinase does not appear to differ from other fish creatine kinases. Both parvalbumins are also very similar to other parvalbumins except that they are more easily oxidized than all the parvalbumins described so far.

D006454	Hemoglobins	The oxygen-carrying proteins of ERYTHROCYTES. They are found in all vertebrates and some invertebrates. The number of globin subunits in the hemoglobin quaternary structure differs between species. Structures range from monomeric to a variety of multimeric arrangements.
