    Notes: Summary A papain treatment at 15°C and pH 7.3 of a microsomal fraction from rabbit enterocytes quantitatively releases the aminopeptidase N integrated in the plasma membranes without solubilizing the enzyme integrated in the intracellular membranes. Working on A+ rabbits, characterized by the presence on the brush-border hydrolases of glycans corresponding to the human blood group A-determinant structure, it was possible to separate the intracellular aminopeptidase into two major molecular forms with or without these determinants. The molecular form devoid of human blood group A antigenicity corresponds to the only stable intermediate of glycosylation, bearing N-linked high mannose oligosaccharides. This endoglycosidase H-sensitive form is fully active and represents in the steady state about 1% of the total cellular aminopeptidase. It contains a cytoplasmic sequence of about 3000 daltons that has not yet been detected in the mature form. The A antigenicity is acquired simultaneously with processing of high mannose glycans to complex glycans. Pulse chase labeling of jejunum loops with [35S]-methionine showed that the complete processing of the transient form synthesized during 10 min takes 1 hr. During the last 30 min of processing, all the newly transformed molecules are transported to the plasma membrane.

    Notes: Summary An aminopeptidase N has been detected by immunofluorescence in the apical plasma membrane of porcine thyroid cells, facing the follicular lumen. Freshly isolated cells obtained by tissue trypsinization, lose their polarity and exhibit a homogeneous enzyme distribution over the whole plasma membrane. In thyrotropin-stimulated cultured cells organized into follicles, the enzyme is localized in the apical cell pole. In monolayer cells, on the other hand, the enzyme is distributed over the whole surface facing the medium. In both types of cultures fluorescence is also observed in intracytoplasmic organelles. In vivo, aminopeptidase is a marker of the apical part of the thyroid plasma membrane, but its in vitro localization depends upon cell differentiation related to the culture conditions.
