Abstract
Abstract 1. 1. The objective of this study was to determine the general ontogeny of lactate dehydrogenase isozymes in whole embryos and various adult tissues of the Mexican axolotl. 2. 2. The LDH isozymes were resolved by polyacrylamide disc electrophoresis. 3. 3. LDH from embryos showed predominantly anodal activity. 4. 4. Skeletal muscle LDH pattens also showed chiefly anodal activity. This result differs substantially from previously reported studies. 5. 5. We suggest that the patterns of LDH isozymes from skeletal muscle of this aquatic salamander may reflect a greater availability of oxygen to this tissue than in terrestrial animals of this type.
