PG - 127-32 AB - The quantitative assay of hexokinase (HK), phosphorylase, phosphofructokinase (PFK), glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PDH), glycerol 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-3 PDH) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) revealed that coxal muscles compared to hepatopancreas contained higher activities of all the enzymes investigated. It appears that the coxal muscles of the premolt field crab has carbohydrate-based fuel economy. The hepatopancreas is a rich source of lipid and very poor source of glycogen. The activity of G-6-PDH is moderately high in the hepatopancreas. It seems that in this lipogenic tissue conversion of G-6-P to triose phosphate occurs predominately via pentose-phosphate pathway thus generating NADPH for lipogenesis. The relative G-3PDH ad LDH activities in hepatopancreas and coxal muscles led us to believe that the reconversion of NAD from NADH in hepatopancreas nd muscle flexor is effected by glycerol 3-phosphate shuttle, whereas in muscle extensor it is achieved by both G-3PDH and LDH activities.
