Heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPG) of rat liver are associated with the plasma membrane in a hydrophobic intrinsic and a hydrophilic extrinsic form. We were interested in determining whether or not these two forms could be detected in the Golgi apparatus, the subcellular site of addition of oligosaccharides and sulfate to HSPG. In vivo and in vitro radiolabeled HSPG from rat liver Golgi apparatus membranes could only be solubilized with detergents that disrupt the membrane lipid bilayer, suggesting that they are solely associated via hydrophobic interactions. Both forms of HSPG were detected in plasma membranes of rat liver and isolated rat hepatocytes. The detergent-solubilized HSPG bound to octyl-Sepharose columns, whereas the hydrophilic form did not; this latter form, however, was released from the membrane by heparin. The hydrophobic anchor of HSPG in the Golgi and plasma membranes was insensitive to treatment with phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C under conditions in which alkaline phosphatase was sensitive; this suggests that the hydrophobic anchor of HSPG is the core protein itself. Preliminary experiments suggest that the subcellular site of processing of the hydrophobic to the hydrophilic form of HSPG is the plasma membrane. A specific processing activity, probably a protease of the plasma membrane not present in serum or the endoplasmic reticulum membrane, converted hydrophobic HSPG of the Golgi membrane to the hydrophilic form. In addition, pulse-chase experiments with [35S]Na2SO4 in rats demonstrated that at short times, the bulk of the radiolabeled cellular HSPG was in the Golgi apparatus; later on, the bulk of the radioactivity was found in the plasma membrane, the only subcellular site where the hydrophilic form of HSPG was detected.  相似文献

The role of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in the termination of the cholinergic response through acetylcholine (ACh) hydrolysis and the involvement of plasma butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE), mainly of hepatic origin, in the metabolism of xenobiotics with ester bonds is well known. Besides, BuChE has a crucial role in ACh hydrolysis, especially when selective anticholinesterases inhibit AChE. Herein, we analyzed the gender-related differences and the circadian changes of rat plasma cholinesterases. Plasma and liver cholinesterase activities were evaluated in control or 2–30-day castrated adult male and female rats. Plasma and liver AChE activities did not differ between genders and were not influenced by sex hormone deprivation. BuChE plasma activity was 7 times greater in female, reflecting gender differences in liver enzyme expression. Castration increased liver and plasma BuChE activity in male, while reduced it in female, abolishing gender differences in enzyme activity. Interestingly, female AChE and BuChE plasma activities varied throughout the day, reaching values 27% and 42% lower, respectively, between 2 p.m. and 6 p.m. when compared to the morning peaks at 8 a.m. Castration attenuated daily female BuChE oscillation. On the other hand, male plasma enzymes remained constant throughout the day. In summary, our results show that liver and plasma BuChE, but not AChE, expression is influenced by sex hormones, leading to high levels of blood BuChE in females. The fluctuation of female plasma BuChE during the day should be taken into account to adjust the bioavailability and the therapeutic effects of cholinesterase inhibitors used in cholinergic-based conditions such Alzheimer's disease.  相似文献

Eight inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), tacrine, bis-tacrine, donepezil, rivastigmine, galantamine, heptyl-physostigmine, TAK-147 and metrifonate, were compared with regard to their effects on AChE and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) in normal human brain cortex. Additionally, the IC50 values of different molecular forms of AChE (monomeric, G1, and tetrameric, G4) were determined in the cerebral cortex in both normal and Alzheimer's human brains. The most selective AChE inhibitors, in decreasing sequence, were in order: TAK-147, donepezil and galantamine. For BuChE, the most specific was rivastigmine. However, none of these inhibitors was absolutely specific for AChE or BuChE. Among these inhibitors, tacrine, bis-tacrine, TAK-147, metrifonate and galantamine inhibited both the G1 and G4 AChE forms equally well. Interestingly, the AChE molecular forms in Alzheimer samples were more sensitive to some of the inhibitors as compared with the normal samples. Only one inhibitor, rivastigmine, displayed preferential inhibition for the G1 form of AChE. We conclude that a molecular form-specific inhibitor may have therapeutic applications in inhibiting the G1 form, which is relatively unchanged in Alzheimer's brain.  相似文献

We report an analysis of the solubility and hydrophobic properties of the globular forms of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) from various Torpedo tissues. We distinguish globular nonamphiphilic forms (Gna) from globular amphiphilic forms (Ga). The Ga forms bind micelles of detergent, as indicated by the following properties. They are converted by mild proteolysis into nonamphiphilic derivatives. Their Stokes radius in the presence of Triton X-100 is approximately 2 nm greater than that of their lytic derivatives. The G2a forms fall in two classes. Class I contains molecules that aggregate in the absence of detergent, when mixed with an AChE-depleted Triton X-100 extract from electric organ. AChE G2a forms from electric organs, nerves, skeletal muscle, and erythrocyte membranes correspond to this type, which is also detectable in detergent-soluble (DS) extracts of electric lobes and spinal cord. Class II forms never aggregate but only present a slight shift in sedimentation coefficient, in the presence or absence of detergent. This class contains the AChE G2a forms of plasma and of the low-salt-soluble (LSS) fractions from spinal cord and electric lobes. The heart possesses a BuChE G2a form of class II in LSS extracts, as well as a similar G1a form. G4a forms of AChE, which are solubilized only in the presence of detergent and aggregate in the absence of detergent, represent a large proportion of cholinesterase in DS extracts of nerves and spinal cord, together with a smaller component of G4a BuChE. These forms may be converted to nonamphiphilic derivatives by Pronase. Nonaggregating G4a forms exist at low levels in the plasma (BuChE) and in LSS extracts of nerves (BuChE) and spinal cord (AChE).  相似文献

The change in the expression of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) activities in neoplastic colon and lung prompted us to study the possible effect of cancer on the expression of cholinesterases (ChEs) in kidney. Samples of papillary renal cell carcinoma (pRCC), conventional RCC (cRCC), chromophobe RCC (chRCC) and renal oncocytoma (RON), beside adjacent non-cancerous tissues, were analyzed. In pRCC both AChE and BuChE activities were statistically increased; in cRCC and chRCC only AChE activity increased and in RON neither AChE nor BuChE activities were affected. Abundant amphiphilic AChE dimers (G(2)(A)) and fewer monomers (G(1)(A)) were identified in healthy kidney as well as in all tumour classes. Incubation with PIPLC revealed glycosylphosphatidylinositol in AChE forms. BuChE is distributed between principal G(4)(H), fewer G(1)(H), and much fewer G(4)(A) and G(1)(A) species. RT-PCR showed similar amounts of AChE-H, AChE-T and BuChE mRNAs in healthy kidney. Their levels increased in pRCC but not in the other tumour types. The data support the idea that, as in lung tumours, in renal carcinomas expression of ChE mRNAs, biosynthesis of molecular components and level of enzyme activity change according to the specific kind of cell from which tumours arise.  相似文献

Looking at cholinesterases (ChEs) changes in age-related mental impairment, the expression of ChEs in brain of senescence accelerated-resistant (SAMR1) and senescence accelerated-prone (SAMP8) mice was studied. Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity was unmodified and BuChE activity increased twofold in SAMP8 brain. SAMR1 brain contained many AChE-T mRNAs, less BuChE and PRiMA mRNAs and scant AChE-R and AChE-H mRNAs. Their content unchanged in SAMP8 brain. Amphiphilic (G(4)(A)) and hydrophilic (G(4)(H)) AChE and BuChE tetramers, besides amphiphilic dimers (G(2)(A)) and monomers (G(1)(A)) were identified in SAMR1 brain and their distribution was little modified in SAMP8 brain. Blood plasma does not seem to provide the excess of BuChE activity in SAMP8 brain; it probably arises from glial cell changes owing to astrocytosis.  相似文献

Abstract Recovery of AChE activity in the motor end plate region and end plate free region of the rat diaphragm was studied after irreversible inhibition by soman. Recovery was slow during the first 2 days and only 4 S and 10 S molecular forms of AChE were present in the end plate region. However, cytochemical evidence indicates that synaptic AChE has already started to accumulate and that the synthesis of AChE in muscle and Schwann cell might even be enhanced. Tubular structures, observed underneath the motor end plate, may serve to transport the enzyme from its sites of synthesis in the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Asymmetric molecular forms of AChE in the end plate region appeared later during recovery and, one week after poisoning, their activity was only about 50% of normal value. The limited ability of newly synthesized AChE to attach to the subcellular structures and, therefore, to be retained in the muscle, may explain the phase of slow recovery. In accordance with this view, AChE activity in brain recovered in a similar way as in muscle, whereas soluble plasma cholinesterases recovered faster, apparently without a slow initial phase.  相似文献

To study the polymorphism of human cholinesterases (ChEs) at the levels of primary sequence and three-dimensional structure, a fragment of human butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) cDNA was subcloned into the pEX bacterial expression vector and its polypeptide product analyzed. Immunoblot analysis revealed that the clone-produced BuChE peptides interact specifically with antibodies against human and Torpedo acetylcholinesterase (AChE). Rabbit polyclonal antibodies prepared against the purified clone-produced BuChE polypeptides interacted in immunoblots with denatured serum BuChE as well as with purified and denatured erythrocyte AChE. In contrast, native BuChE tetramers from human serum, but not AChE dimers from erythrocytes, interacted with these antibodies in solution to produce antibody-enzyme complexes that could be precipitated by second antibodies and that sedimented faster than the native enzyme in sucrose gradient centrifugation. Furthermore, both AChE and BuChE dimers from muscle extracts, but not BuChE tetramers from muscle, interacted with these antibodies. To reveal further whether the anti-cloned BuChE antibodies would interact in situ with ChEs in the neuromuscular junction, bundles of muscle fibers were microscopically dissected from the region in fetal human diaphragm that is innervated by the phrenic nerve. Muscle fibers incubated with the antibodies and with 125I-Protein A were subjected to emulsion autoradiography, followed by cytochemical ChE staining. The anti-cloned BuChE antibodies, as well as anti-Torpedo AChE antibodies, created patches of silver grains in the muscle endplate region stained for ChE, under conditions where control sera did not. These findings demonstrate that the various forms of human AChE and BuChE in blood and in neuromuscular junctions share sequence homologies, but also display structural differences between distinct molecular forms within particular tissues, as well as between similarly sedimenting molecular forms from different tissues.  相似文献

Subcellular localisation of inositol lipid kinases in rat liver   总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5  
The subcellular distribution of the enzymes which phosphorylate phosphatidylinositol sequentially to form phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate was investigated in rat liver. We demonstrate that whilst phosphatidylinositol kinase is present in Golgi, lysosomes and plasma membranes, the kinase that forms phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate is localised predominantly at the plasma membrane. The role of the inositol lipid kinases in cell function is discussed.  相似文献

A previous study conducted in this laboratory revealed a decrease in total cholinesterase (total ChE) in the cerebral cortex, hippocampus and striatum in aged rats (24 months) of various strains, as compared with young animals (3 months). The purpose of the present experiments was to extend the study to other brain areas (hypothalamus, medulla-pons and cerebellum) and to assess whether this decrease was dependent on the reduction of either specific acetylcholinesterase (AChE) or butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) or both. By using ultracentrifugation on a sucrose gradient, the molecular forms of AChE were evaluated in all the brain areas of young and aged Sprague-Dawley rats. In young rats the regional distribution of total ChE and AChE varied considerably with respect to BuChE. The age-related loss of total ChE was seen in all areas. Although there was a reduction of AChE and, to somewhat lesser extent, of BuChE in the cerebral cortex, hippocampus, striatum, and hypothalamus (but not in the medulla-pons or the cerebellum), the ratio AChE/BuChE was not substantially modified by age. Two molecular forms of AChE, namely G4 (globular tetrameric) and G1 (monomeric), were detected in all the brain areas. Their distribution, expressed as G4/G1 ratio, varied in young rats from about 7.5 for the striatum to about 2.0 for the medulla-pons and cerebellum. The age-related changes consisted in a significant and selective loss of the enzymatic activity of G4 forms in the cerebral cortex, hippocampus, striatum, and hypothalamus, which resulted in a significant decrease of the G4/G1 ratio. No such changes were found in the medullapons or the cerebellum. Since G4 forms have been proposed to be present presynaptically, their age-related loss in those brain areas where acetylcholine plays an important role in neurotransmission may indicate an impairment of presynaptic mechanisms.  相似文献

Synopsis Sections of ovary from plains viscacha, cat, ferret, rabbit, rat, guinea-pig and roe deer have been histochemically processed to demonstrate acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) in nervous and non-nervous tissue. The effects of different reproductive states on enzyme activity were observed in some animals. AChE-containing nerves were sparse in rabbit and rat but plentiful in cat and roe deer. Nerves containing BuChE were not detectable in ferret or guinea-pig and were rare in cat. Species variations in the activity and type of enzyme were also found in non-neuronal tissues. Some blood vessels in the ovaries of guinea-pig and viscacha contained AChE. No other species showed a reaction for AChE in non-neuronal stromal tissue but BuChE was present at this site in all animals except rat. Granulosa cells reacted for AChE only in cat and rabbit while luteal cells were reactive in cat, rabbit and roe deer. Some BuChE activity was present in granulosa and or luteal cells in all species except roe deer. In rat, BuChE activity in luteal cells increased during oregnaney and the early phase of pseudopregnancy. The difficulty of assigning a function to ovarian cholinesterases is discussed.  相似文献

Direct ferritin immunoelectron microscopy was used to visualize the asialoglycoprotein receptor in various rat liver subcellular fractions. The cytoplasmic surfaces of cytoplasmic organelles such as the rough and smooth microsomes, Golgi cisternae and lysosomes showed hardly any ferritin label exception for the slight labeling of secretory granules found mainly in the light Golgi fraction (GF1). Occasionally, however, open membrane sheet structures, smooth vesicular or tubular structures heavily labeled with ferritin, were present in all these subcellular fractions. These structures probably correspond to fragmented sinusoidal or lateral hepatocyte plasma membranes recovered to these subcellular fractions. When the limiting membranes of the secretion granules were partially broken by mechanical force, a number of ferritin particles frequently were seen attached in large clusters to the luminal surface of the membrane, the cytoplasmic surface of the corresponding domain being slightly labeled. These observations are strong evidence that the receptor protein is never translocated vertically throughout the intracellular transport from ER to plasma membrane via Golgi apparatus and from plasma membrane back to trans-Golgi elements and also in lysosomes, always exposing the major antigenic sites to the luminal or extracellular surface and the minor counterparts to the cytoplasmic surface of the membranes. The receptor protein also is suggested to be concentrated in clusters on the luminal surface of secretion granules when they form on the trans-side of the Golgi apparatus.  相似文献

We studied the composition of molecular forms of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) in normal and streptozotocin-induced diabetic rat retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). Tissues were sequentially extracted with saline (S(1)) and saline-detergent buffers (S(2)). About a 50% decrease in AChE molecular forms was observed in the diabetic RPE compared to the controls. Approximately 70% of the BChE activity in normal RPE was brought into solution and evenly distributed in S(1) and S(2). Analysis of the fractions from RPE revealed the presence of G(A)(1), G(A)(4) and a small proportion of G(H)(4) BChE forms in S(1); whereas G(A)(4) and G(A)(1) molecules predominate in S(2). A 40% decrease in the activity of G(A)(4) in S(2) was observed in the diabetic RPE. Our results show that diabetes caused a remarkable decrease in the activity of cholinesterases molecular forms in the RPE. This might be related to the alterations observed in diabetic retinopathy.  相似文献

Changes in cholinesterases activities in daunorubicin cardiomyopathy and in dexrazoxane (DRZX)-treated daunorubicin cardiomyopathy were investigated in rabbits. Acetyl- and butyrylcholinesterase (AChE and BuChE) were determined using Ellman's method. In the serum, a significant decrease of BuChE was observed in the daunorubicin group (9.05 at the beginning and 7.15 microcat/l at the end of the experiment). After DRZX, no significant changes were found and a significant increase in BuChE was observed in the control group (10.26-12.38 microcat/l). AChE activity in the left and right cardiac ventricles was not significantly different between the groups while in the septum there was a significantly lower AChE activity found in the daunorubicin group only. BuChE activity was significantly decreased in the left (15.64 ncat/g) and right (19.27 ncat/g) heart ventricles, in the septum and in the liver in the daunorubicin group. A significant decrease in serum total protein and albumin was demonstrated only in the daunorubicin group. Our results support the hypothesis about the influence of daunorubicin on protein (and enzyme) synthesis in the liver and heart. A protective effect of DRZX on cholinesterases activity was observed. The changes in cholinesterase activities may thus reflect their possible role in cardiomyopathy.  相似文献

Amphiphile dependency, solubility in aqueous solutions, and sensitivity to proteolysis of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and nonspecific cholinesterase (nsChE) in the rat superior cervical ganglion were studied and compared to properties of soluble plasma cholinesterases. Ganglion AChE shows strong amphiphile dependency: an amphyphilic substance must be present in the homogenizing medium in order to obtain maximal apparent enzyme activity. Apparent activity of AChE solubilized in Ringer's solution was also increased after subsequent addition of a detergent. The 4 S molecular form, predominant in this extract (corresponding to the fastest electrophoretic band), is very sensitive to papain proteolysis but can be protected by a detergent. This molecular form therefore carries an important hydrophobic domain and is probably membrane bound in situ. The 10 S form of ganglionic AChE, extracted in Ringer's solution, is probably a soluble enzyme since, like soluble plasma enzymes, it is not amphiphile dependent and is rather resistant to proteolysis. Ganglion nsChE is more water soluble, less amphiphile dependent and more protease resistant than AChE.  相似文献

The embryonic development of total specific activities as well as of molecular forms of acetylcholinesterase (AChE, EC 3.1.1.7) and of butyrylcholinesterase (BChE, EC 3.1.1.8) have been studied in the chick brain. A comparison of the development in different brain parts shows that cholinesterases first develop in diencephalon, then in tectum and telencephalon; cholinesterase development in retina is delayed by about 2-3 days; and the development in rhombencephalon [not studied until embryonic day 6 (E6)] and cerebellum is last. Both enzymes show complex and independent developmental patterns. During the early period (E3-E7) first BChE expresses high specific activities that decline rapidly, but in contrast AChE increases more or less constantly with a short temporal delay. Thereafter the developmental courses approach a late phase (E14-E20), during which AChE reaches very high specific activities and BChE follows at much lower but about parallel levels. By extraction of tissues from brain and retina in high salt plus 1% Triton X-100, we find that both cholinesterases are present in two major molecular forms, AChE sedimenting at 5.9S and 11.6S (corresponding to G2 and G4 globular forms) and BChE at 2.9S and 10.3S (G1 and G4, globular). During development there is a continuous increase of G4 over G2 AChE, the G4 form reaching 80% in brain but only 30% in retina. The proportion of G1 BChE in brain remains almost constant at 55%, but in retina there is a drastic shift from 65% G1 before E5 to 70% G4 form at E7.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

We report an electrophoretic analysis of the hydrophobic properties of the globular forms of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) from various Torpedo tissues. In charge-shift electrophoresis, the rate of electrophoretic migration of globular amphiphilic forms (Ga) is increased at least twofold when the anionic detergent deoxycholate is added to Triton X-100, whereas that of globular nonamphiphilic forms (Gna) is not modified. The G2a forms of the first class, as defined by their aggregation properties, are converted to nonamphiphilic derivatives by phosphatidylinositol phospholipase C (PI-PLC) and human serum phospholipase D (PLD). AChE G2a forms from electric organs, nerves, skeletal muscle, and erythrocyte membranes correspond to this type, which also exists in very small quantities in detergent-solubilized extracts of electric lobes and spinal cord. They present different electrophoretic mobilities, so that each of these tissues contains a distinct "electromorph," or two in the case of electric organs. The G2a forms of the second class (AChE in plasma, BuChE in heart), as well as G4a forms of AChE and BuChE, are insensitive to PI-PLC and PLD but may be converted to nonamphiphilic derivatives by Pronase.  相似文献

To learn more about the evolution of the cholinesterases (ChEs), acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase in the vertebrates, we investigated the AChE activity of a deuterostome invertebrate, the urochordate Ciona intestinalis, by expressing in vitro a synthetic recombinant cDNA for the enzyme in COS-7 cells. Evidence from kinetics, pharmacology, molecular biology, and molecular modeling confirms that the enzyme is AChE. Sequence analysis and molecular modeling also indicate that the cDNA codes for the AChE(T) subunit, which should be able to produce all three globular forms of AChE: monomers (G(1)), dimers (G(2)), and tetramers (G(4)), and assemble into asymmetric forms in association with the collagenic subunit collagen Q. Using velocity sedimentation on sucrose gradients, we found that all three of the globular forms are either expressed in cells or secreted into the medium. In cell extracts, amphiphilic monomers (G(1)(a)) and non-amphiphilic tetramers (G(4)(na)) are found. Amphiphilic dimers (G(2)(a)) and non-amphiphilic tetramers (G(4)(na)) are secreted into the medium. Co-expression of the catalytic subunit with Rattus norvegicus collagen Q produces the asymmetric A(12) form of the enzyme. Collagenase digestion of the A(12) AChE produces a lytic G(4) form. Notably, only globular forms are present in vivo. This is the first demonstration that an invertebrate AChE is capable of assembling into asymmetric forms. We also performed a phylogenetic analysis of the sequence. We discuss the relevance of our results with respect to the evolution of the ChEs in general, in deuterostome invertebrates, and in chordates including vertebrates.  相似文献

We report Raman spectra of various cholinesterases: lytic tetrameric forms (G4) obtained by tryptic digestion of asymmetric acetylcholinesterase (AChE) from Torpedo californica and Electrophorus electricus, a PI-PLC-treated dimeric form (G2) of AChE from T marmorata, and the soluble tetrameric form (G4) of butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) from human plasma. The contribution of different types of secondary structure was estimated by analyzing the amide I band, using the method of Williams. The spectra of cholinesterases in 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.0) indicate the presence of both alpha-helices (about 50%) and beta-sheets (about 25%), together with 15% turns and 10% undefined structures. In 20 mM phosphate buffer (pH 7.0), the spectra indicated a smaller contribution of alpha-helical structure (about 35%) and an increased beta-sheet content (from 25 to 35%). This shows that the ionic milieu profoundly affects either the conformation of the protein (AChE activity is known to be sensitive to ionic strength), or the evaluation of secondary structure, or both. In addition, we analyzed vibrations corresponding to the side chains of aromatic and aliphatic amino acids. In particular, the analyses of the tyrosine doublet (830-850 cm-1) and of the tryptophan vibration at 880 cm-1 indicated that these residues are predominantly 'exposed' on the surface of the molecules.  相似文献

The secretion and cellular localization of the molecular forms of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) were studied in primary cultures of rat sympathetic neurons. When cultured under conditions favoring a noradrenergic phenotype, these neurons synthesized and secreted large quantities of the tetrameric G4, and the dodecameric A12 forms, and minor amounts of the G1 and G2 forms. When these neurons adopted the cholinergic phenotype, i.e., in the presence of muscle-conditioned medium, the development of the cellular A12 form was completely inhibited. These neurons secreted only globular, mainly G4, AChE. Both cellular and secreted A12 AChE in adrenergic cultures aggregated at an ionic strength similar to that of the culture medium, raising the hypothesis that this form was associated with a polyanionic component of basal lamina. In noradrenergic neurons, 60-80% of the catalytic sites were exposed at the cell surface. In particular, 80% of G4 form, but only 60% of the A12 form, was external, demonstrating for the A12 form a sizeable intracellular pool. The hydrophobic character of the molecular forms was studied in relation to their cellular localization. As in muscle cells, most of the G4 form was membrane-bound. Whereas 76% of the cell surface A12 form was solubilized in the aqueous phase by high salt concentrations, only 50% of the intracellular A12 form was solubilized under these conditions. The rest of intracellular A12 could be solubilized by detergents and was thus either membrane-bound or entrapped in vesicles originating from, e.g., the Golgi apparatus.  相似文献
