Isolation of pure cholinergic nerve endings from the electric organ of Torpedo marmorata
Biochem J.
.
Abstract
A rapid method for the preparation of highly purified cholinergic nerve endings from the electric organ of Torpedo is described. The endings retain their cytoplasmic components, as shown by biochemical and morphological observations. The homogeneity of these synaptosomes make them a useful tool for further studies.
