title: Subcellular localisation of cerebral fucosyltransferase.
abstract: GDP-fucose: asialofetuin fucosyltransferase from sheep brain was fractionated on a sucrose gradient into two activity peaks. Using purification on Ficoll adapted from the proposed method [(1980) J. Neurochem. 35, 281-296], double localisation of cerebral fucosyltransferase was confirmed and the subcellular active fractions identified as light microsomes and mitochondria.
