Isocitrate-NADP oxidoreductase activity in mitochondrial and
soluble fractions was determined for hearts, livers and brains of
chick embryos at various stages of development. One-half to two-thirds
of the activity in brain and liver homogenates is located in the
soluble fraction. Supernatant activity increases in these organs to a
maximum during...
