title: Glucose 1,6-bisphosphate and fructose 2,6-bisphosphate levels in different types of rat skeletal muscle.
abstract: 1. The concentration of glycogen, glucose 1,6-P2, fructose 2,6-P2 and the content of glycogen phosphorylase, phosphofructokinase, 6-phosphofructo 2-kinase and glucose 1,6-P2 phosphatase activity, have been determined in rat muscles which differ in their fiber composition: extensor digitorum longus, gastrocnemius, diaphragm and soleus. 2. Glucose 1,6-P2 concentration seems to be related to the glycolytic capacity of the muscle, while fructose 2,6-P2 concentration does not. 3. No significant relationship exists between the fiber type and the content in glucose 1,6-P2 phosphatase and 6-phosphofructo 2-kinase activities.
