Adaptive pressure effects on fish ATPase extend comparative enzymology; leaves open relevance to mammalian cardiac models.
The study demonstrates that the actomyosin ATPase of the benthic fish Coryphaenoides has adapted to be relatively insensitive to the high pressure and low temperature of its deep-sea environment.
KIM et al. (1971) studied this question.
