Abstract
Parvalbumin content and its isoform pattern in the muscle of red sea bream Pagrus major were analyzed during the course of development from the larval stage to adult stage. Parvalbumin content in the muscle was found to increase from the larval stage to juvenescence stage, followed by a small decrease until the young stage. Furthermore, its isoform pattern was found to change from the larval stage to adult stage. These results indicate that parvalbumin is closely related with muscle development.
