Description Measurements of the specific activities of the representative enzymes of different pathways linked to carbohydrate metabolism indicate that glycolysis and TCA cycles are the major route of carbohydrate catabolism in the sporulating phase of fruiting body development in Pleurotus ostreatus. Enzymes of the pentose phosphate pathway always showed lower specific activities as compared to those of the enzymes of the glycolytic pathway. The activity of NADP linked glutamate dehydrogenase which is known to be an anabolic enzyme decreased drastically in sporulating fruiting bodies and in spore containing gill tissue (spore bearing structure). Mannitol dehydrogenase activity declined significantly in the sporulating phase of P. ostreatus.
