When Ron Evans generated transgenic mice in which the gene PPAR-delta was constituitively active (i.e., always expressed), he found that these mice showed a shift from fast glycolytic fibers to slow oxidative fibers. Based on this, you would also predict faster sprint speeds in the transgenic mice.

Question

The shift from fast glycolytic fibers to slow oxidative fibers would enhance endurance and fat metabolism, not necessarily improve sprint speed, which relies on fast glycolytic fibers for quick, powerful bursts of energy.
