Abstract:Thiamine pyrophosphatase (TPPase) and nucleoside diphosphatase (NDPase) both have a similar localization in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), the perinuclear space (PNS) and the Golgi apparatus (GA) in hepatocytes and other cell types. Whether they are two separate enzymes or a single one has not been determined. Recently cerium has been reported as an excellent substitute for lead. The study described here compared the activities of TPPase and NDPase in pinealocytes by the cerium-based method.Guinea pig pineal … Show more
