Water-soluble phosphates of fish red cells
The nature and significance of water-soluble (small molecule) phosphates in vertebrate red blood cells are reviewed and new data presented for several fish including: three salmon (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha, Oncorhynchus kisutch and Oncorhynchus nerka), a mackerel (Scomber japonicus), a dogfish (Squalu...
