Abstract
Liver glutaminase can be solubilized from frozen-and-thawed mitochondria by treatment with phospholipase A2. Solubilization by this technique markedly changes the kinetic properties of the enzyme. The properties of the membrane-bound form of the enzyme are partially restored by adding phosphatidylcholine or phosphatidylethanolamine to the phospholipase extract. It is concluded that the kinetic properties of liver glutaminase are a function of the interaction of this enzyme with membrane phospholipids.Entities:
