[Methylglyoxal shunt of glycolysis in animal muscles].

The comparative activity of the methyglyoxalic bypass of the glycolysis has been studied in muscles of vertebrates and invertebrates. An assumption is advanced that the methylglyoxalic bypass is related to the energy exchange, dissociation of catabolism and anabolism of carbohydrates and proteins maintenance of the constant level of asymmetrical entropy in vivo.
