Elevated temperature and PCO2 shift metabolic pathways in differentially oxidative tissues of Notothenia rossii.
Mitochondrial plasticity plays a central role in setting the capacity for acclimation of aerobic metabolism in ectotherms in response to environmental changes. We still lack a clear picture if and to what extent the energy metabolism and mitochondrial enzymes of Antarctic fish can compensate for changing temperatures or PCO2 and whether capacities for compensation differ between tissues. We the...
متن کاملL-Arginine Metabolism in Mitochondria Isolated From the Liver of Antarctic Fish Notothenia rossii and Notothenia neglecta
The arginase tissue distribution, the biochemical properties of the argininolytic system and the subcellular localization of the enzymes carbamoylphosphate synthetase, ornithinecarbamoyl transferase, glutamine synthetase and arginase in Antarctic fish, N. neglecta and N. rossii were the main aims of the present work. The tissue with highest argininolytic activity was the kidney distal portion a...
متن کاملMitochondrial Acclimation Capacities to Ocean Warming and Acidification Are Limited in the Antarctic Nototheniid Fish, Notothenia rossii and Lepidonotothen squamifrons
Antarctic notothenioid fish are characterized by their evolutionary adaptation to the cold, thermostable Southern Ocean, which is associated with unique physiological adaptations to withstand the cold and reduce energetic requirements but also entails limited compensation capacities to environmental change. This study compares the capacities of mitochondrial acclimation to ocean warming and aci...
متن کاملAdaptive radiation at a low taxonomic level: divergence in buoyancy of the ecologically similar Antarctic fish Notothenia coriiceps and N. rossii
We studied the buoyancy of 263 specimens of the sympatric sister species Notothenia coriiceps and N. rossii captured at King George Island. In these species without a swim bladder, we expressed measurements of buoyancy as percentage buoyancy (%B = weight in water/weight in air × 100), with smaller numbers reflecting more buoyant (i.e. less dense) species. Mean %B of N. coriiceps (4.34%) was sig...
متن کاملOxygen consumption in an antarctic hemoglobin-free fish, Pagetopsis macropterus, and in three species of Notothenia.
1. The rate of oxygen consumption was determined in an Antarctic hemoglobin-free fish, Pagetopsis macropterus, and in three species of Notothenia, all of which have hemoglobin. In P. macropterus, the consumption at 0C ranged from 0.012 to 0.022 ml O2/g per hr, one-half to one-quarter of that in other fishes. In all cases, the rate was little affected by the oxygen tension in the water when it w...
