Distribution of glycerophosphorylcholine diesterase in rat brain.
The distribution of glycerylphosphorylcholine diesterase in the rat brain has been examined. The enzyme was evenly distributed throughout the brain but was localized in the synaptosome (nerve ending) fraction which was prepared by ultracentrifugation.
