Abstract
STUDIES on the rate-limiting steps of glycolysis have been carried out in dog1, mouse2 and frog3 skeletal muscle and in perfused rat heart4, yeast5 and ascites tumour cells6. The rate of post-mortem anaerobic glycolysis is extremely variable in porcine striated musculature7. Study of metabolic intermediates associated with the extremes in glycolytic rate (fast, pH < 5.5, and slow, pH > 6.0 by 1 hour post mortem) may provide information on the control of anaerobic glycolysis in intact skeletal muscle.
