Alkaline phosphatase and leucine aminopeptidase association in plasma of the chicken |
|
| Authors: | G R Law |
| Abstract: | Two electrophoretic vari ants of leucine aminopeptidase show direct association with two genetically controlled forms of alkaline phosphatase. Treatment of plasma with neuraminidase converted the faster-migrating form of both enzymes to slower-moving forms, but plasmas with slowermigrating forms were unaffected by this treatment. The two forms of the enzymes may be due to the presence or absence of a single gene controlling the attachment of sialic acid to the enzyme molecules. |
