Separation of arginase isoenzymes from human tissues by agar gel electrophoresis
Abstract
Arginase (EC 3.5.3.1) from human liver. kidney, mammary gland, and erythrocytes, was separated by agar-gel electrophoresis using barbital buffer pH 8.6. Three isoenzymes were separated. Two of these, A2 and A3, occur in liver and erythrocytes. The same two isoenzymes were found in the kidney, but in reversed proportions. In addition to the A3 isoenzyme, the mammary gland contains a fast anodically moving A1 isoenzyme. The three isoenzymes differ in their degree of sensitivity to ornithine.
