title: ATPase and alkaline phosphatase activities of chick and rat small intestinal mucosa.
abstract: The alkaline phosphatase and (Ca2+ +Mg2+)-ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) of chick and rat small intestine have been investigated. The same pH optimum was found for membrane-bound and solubilized alkaline phosphatase, whereas those of the corresponding ATPases differed. The solubilised ATPases had inhibition and activation characteristics similar to those of alkaline phosphatase but markedly different from those of the membrane-bound ATPase. These results suggest that membrane-bound alkaline phosphatase and ATPase are not the same enzyme.
