Trends in Postmortem Aging in Fish: Understanding of Proteolysis and Disorganization of the Myofibrillar Structure

Postmortem tenderization is caused by enzymatic degradation of key structural proteins in myofibrils as well as in extracellular matrix, and of proteins involved in intermyofibrillar linkages and linkages between myofibrils and the sarcolemma. The function of these proteins is to maintain the struct... View More
