Intracellular distribution of tricarboxylic acid cycle enzymes in liver of rainbow trout Salmo gairdneri

The intracellular distribution of enzymes of the TCA cycle was investigated in liver of rainbow trout. All enzymes of the cycle apart from succinyl thiokinase were detected. Citrate synthase, alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase and succinate dehydrogenase were wholly mitochondrial. Fumarase, malate dehydrogenase, aconitase and NADP-isocitrate dehydrogenase were detected in both cytosol and mitochondria.
