[Expression of paternal genes controlling cytochrome oxidase activity in hybrid fish].
The heat resistance of the oxygen consumption by the mitochondria, temperature dependence of the Michaelis' constant (CM) and heat resistance of cytochrome oxidase were studied in the embryos and larvae of fish hybrids (Misgurnus X Brachydanio). The oxygen consumption by the mitochondria from the larvae of Misgurnus ceased (following the 10 min heating) at 50 degrees, from Brachydanio at 54 degrees and from the hybrids at 52 degress suggesting control of the respiratory function. CM of cytochrome oxidase has the same minimum in the larvae of Misgurnus and Brachydanio, therefore this criterion was not used to study the genetic control in their hybrids. The heat resistance of cytochrome oxidase (T50) differed in Misgurnus and Brachydanio and was of intermediate value in their hybrids. At the early stages of hybrid development T50 was of maternal type (Misgurnus) but beginning from the mid-gastrula stage T50 increased and attained the maximum prior to the hatching. Chloramphenicol did not affect the increase of T50 in hybrids, but actinomycin decreased it almost down to the level characteristic of Misgurnus. The data obtained suggest that the genetic control of cytochrome oxidase activity begins earlier than that of other studied enzymes.
