| Popis: | 1. This study was conducted to investigate the relationship between histochemical fiber types and myosin light chain patterns in rat single muscle fibers. 2. The hybrid of fast and slow light chains was observed in type I and II fibers of the soleus and type II fibers of the red portion of lateral head of the gastrocnemius muscles. 3. We also observed 7 types of light chain composition. Of the 7 types, 5 types were explainable by assuming the coexistence of isomyosins with either fast or slow light chains. However, the other 2 types could not be accounted for without hypothesizing the presence of isomyosins with promiscuous light chain distribution. |
