Basolateral membrane of rat enterocyte: its purification from brush border contamination

  • 1. Universita di Milano, Italy

Description

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
