1. In rats, liver 4-hydroxy-2-oxoglutarate aldolase and hydroxyproline oxidase activities are maximal in the suckling period. 2. Liver activities for 4-hydroxy-2-oxoglutarate aldolase, alanine-glyoxylate aminotransferase, serine-pyruvate aminotransferase and serine dehydratase, but not hydroxyproline oxidase, are increased in rats on a high-fat, carbohydrate-free diet. 3. It is suggested that 4-hydroxy-2-oxoglutarate may be a significant source of glyoxylate for glycine and hence glucose formation. 4. Mammalian liver hydroxyproline oxidase activity is higher in carnivorous species; necessary, perhaps, to metabolise a relatively large influx of hydroxyproline on a flesh diet.
