The patterns of alanine dehydrogenase, glutamate dehydrogenase and malate dehydrogenase activity were studied during the normal vegetative cell cycle and during the processes of gametic differentiation and dedifferentiation in synchronized cultures of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. During all three phases of growth and differentiation the synthesis of DNA was also measured. During gametic differentiation all three enzyme levels were suppressed compared to vegetative cells although DNA and cell number were comparable. During gametic dedifferentiation no DNA synthesis occurred during the first 24 h cycle and only a doubling during the second. It was not until the third cycle that a normal 4-fold increase in DNA was observed. Cell number followed a similar pattern. Although the levels of alanine dehydrogenase and malate dehydrogenase were uniformly low during the first cycle when glutamate dehydrogenase increased 4-fold, during the second cycle the patterns of these enzymes changed markedly. The enzymes did not attain levels characteristic of vegetative cells until the third cycle.
