The effects of environmental temperature on the properties of myofibrillar adenosine triphosphatase from various species of fish.


ABSTRACT: 1. Myofibrillar adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activities were measured for white myotomal muscle of 19 species of fish. 2. The activity was measured at different temperatures and after periods of preincubation at 37 degrees C. 3. The inactivation half-life at 37 degrees C depended on environmental temperature, increasing as the temperature increased. 4. Cold-water fish had higher myofibrillar adenosine triphosphatase activity at low temperatures than had warm-water fish. 5. The significance of these results is discussed.
