Summary

The genetic polymorphism of isocitrate dehydrogenase has been investigated in 400 Primates. Six different phenotypes of the soluble enzyme were demonstrated. The mitochondrial enzyme exhibited a uniform electrophoretic pattern.

Zusammenfassung

Die Isocitratdehydrogenasen der Primaten zeigen eine genetisch determinierte Variabilität. Für das cytoplasmatische Enzym konnten 6 verschiedene Phänotypen nachgewiesen werden. Das mitochondriale Enzym verhielt sich in der Elektrophorese einheitlich.
