Regulation of carnosine metabolism: The subcellular localization of carnosinase in liver

Abstract

We studied the subcellular localization of carnosinase (EC 3.4.13.3) in rat liver. The liver homogenate was fractionated by differential centrifugation into a nuclear (N), a mitochondrial (M), a lysosomal (L), a microsomal (P) and a soluble (S) fraction. The purity of different subcellular fractions was established by using different markers. The carnosinase activity in different fractions was measured by fluorometric determination of …
