[Aminotransferases in early development of salmonid fish]

The activities of alanine and aspartate aminotransferases were assessed in the embryos and juveniles of the rainbow trout Parasalmo mukiss L. and chum salmon Oncorchyncus keta W. Changes in subcellular localization of these enzymes and their activities were found at different pH optima in each subcellular fraction of the rainbow trout during ontogenesis.
