| Abstract: | The subcellular localization of DHAPAT activity in male and female albino mouse kidneys was investigated by density gradient centrifugation. DHAPAT has a predominantly peroxisomal distribution in both male and female kidneys; however some activity is also distributed in a less dense region of the gradient, predominantly containing microsomes. Peroxisomal fractions also contain some lactate dehydrogenase activity and approximately 9% of the cellular NAD-dependent alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase activity. |
