Description
Paramyosin fibers were observed in newly born Gambusia affinis
larvae. Extraction procedures specific for paramyosin apparently
removed the protein as evidence by electron microscopic examination.
Recrystallization and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis have identified
the fibers as relatively homogenous paramyosin protein. The midstage
embryo did not possess paramyosin fibers; however, the notochord and
adjacent tissues were observed to be in a state of rapid protein
synthesis. Mitochondrial association with nuclei and 'semi-rough' endoplasmic
reticulum were seen. Mitochondria were shown to possess
lamellar bodies, which may be a form of degeneration. Lamellar body
formation observed in other species of animals is discussed.
