Fructose 1,6-biphosphate aldolase in the sera of Simmental young bulls

The activity of enzyme aldolase(ALD) was determined in the sera of Simmental young bulls,with the purpose to see whether there exist a relationship between the enzyme activity and fattening capacity and whether the ALD could be an indicator of the muscle quantity and protein content.Early ALD activity was corrrrelated with slaughter weight and ADG in the last fattening month.The regression analysis suggest that young bulls with higher serum ALD activity at the start of the experiment had more total muscles and less bone in the analysed rib part.On the basis of ALD activity in the first fattening month it was possible to estimate protein and fat content in the MLD.
