[Activity and thermal stability of the enzymes of energy support in the common frog]

The activity and heat resistance of succinate dehydrogenase (SDG), Na, K-ATPase and Mg-ATPase of the grass frog (39 specimens) have been determined. No correlation was found between individual levels of heat resistance both of either enzyme examined and of the same enzyme but taken from different tissues (SDG of liver and muscles). The average level of heat resistance of SDG in liver is significantly higher than that in m. gastrocnemius. A statistically significant correlation was observed between individual levels of enzyme activity in the internal organs (SDG of liver, Na, K-ATPase and Mg-ATPase of kidney). The activity of SDG of muscles does not correlate with that of either partner.
