title: Developmental forms of human skeletal muscle AMP-deaminase.
abstract: Chromatography on phosphocellulose revealed the existence of two well-separable forms of skeletal muscle AMP-deaminase in the tissue extracts of 11- and 16-week-old human fetuses. One of these forms elutes from the column at the same salt concentration as the muscle isozyme found in the skeletal muscle extract from adult man, and seems to have similar kinetic properties. The second form, which was found only in vestigial amounts in adult human tissue extract, represents different kinetic properties and seems to be a form characteristic for the fetal period of ontogenesis.
