Ultrahistochemical localization of the glutamate-oxaloacetate transaminase (GOT) enzyme in hepatic and skeletal muscle cells in rat.
The ultrastructural localization of the glutamate-oxaloacetate transaminase (GOT) enzyme in hepatic and skeletal muscle cells has been studied. The GOT activity localized first on the cristae of mitochondria both in hepatic and skeletal muscle cells. Further activity of the enzyme was observed in the endoplasmic reticulum and in sarcoplasmic reticulum but not in other cell components.
