Summary

No changes in actomyosin calcium-, magnesium-, or magnesium-calcium ions-ATPase activities were observed during iced storage of Pacific whiting fillets, but magnesium ions-EGTA-ATPase increased with a loss of calcium ions - sensitivity. Autolytic degradation products increased in fish muscle with storage time. Results indicated that autolysis may be the main cause of physicochemical changes in Pacific whiting muscle proteins during iced storage.
