The erythrocytes of 350 pigtailed macaques (Macaca nemestrina) were examined for electrophoretic variation of hemoglobin and 26 enzymes. Seven enzymes showed variation in more than 1% of individuals: phosphoglucose isomerase, phosphoglucomutase-1, soluble NADP-dependent isocitric dehydrogenase, peptidase A, peptidase C, 2,3-diphosphoglycerate mutase, and acid phosphatase. Variation with lesser frequency was found in soluble glutamic-oxalacetic transaminase, phosphoglycerate kinase, lactic dehydrogenase, and hemoglobin. Only eight samples were tested for esterase D, and one of these had a variant phenotype. Enzymes with no clear variation were adenylate kinase, adenosine deaminase, phosphofructokinase, hexokinase, pyruvate kinase, glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase, aldolase, phosphoglycerate mutase, phosphopyruvate hydratase (enolase), phosphoglucomutase-3, and superoxide dismutase. There was father-to-son transmission of PGI, PGM-1, peptidase C, 6PGD, 2,3-DPGAM, NADP-ICD, and acid phosphatase variants, suggesting that these loci are autosomal as in man.

1. The activity of several tricarboxylic acid-cycle-associated dehydrogenases, adenine-metabolizing enzymes and glutathione reductase and the content of myoglobin were measured in rat diaphragm muscle after unilateral nerve section. 2. Consistent with morphological disintegration of the mitochondria there was a rapid diminution in activity of NAD- and NADP-linked isocitrate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase and glutamate dehydrogenase. 3. Creatine phosphokinase and adenylate kinase, by contrast, showed little change in activity; adenylate deaminase and glutathione reductase activities increased during the hypertrophic phase. The concentration of myoglobin at first declined, then increased again. 4. The distribution of enzymes between the left and right hemidiaphragms was found not to be uniform. 5. Activities of adenine-metabolizing enzymes in the diaphragm were as great as in white muscle. It is suggested that their reputedly lower activities in red muscle properly refer to muscle containing a high proportion of intermediate fibres, which is not the case with diaphragm. 6. The possible causes of the transient hypertrophy after nerve section are discussed.
