Summary
Heavy and light microsomal fractions were subfractioned using high performance zonal rotors, and assayed for approtenin sensitive kallikrein- like amidolytic activity (pH 8.2). The activity profiles for the various substrates assayed show rather complex distribution pattern demonstrating kallikrein-like amidolytic activity in plasma membranes, basolateral membranes, rough endoplasmic reticulum and membranes derived from the Golgi complex.
