The basolateral membrane of rat enterocyte: its purification from brush border contamination
Abstract
Basolateral membranes obtained by self-orienting Percoll-gradient centrifugation were treated with 5 mM CaCl2 to minimize the cross-contamination by brush border membranes. From marker enzyme-specific activities it was calculated that in this preparation the basolateral/brush border membrane ratio was 22.6. A low L-glucose permeability across basolateral membrane vesicles together with ATP-dependent sodium uptake was observed.
