Selective extraction of marker enzymes of bovine milk fat globule membrane by nonionic detergents.
Large amounts (66-97%) of marker enzymes such as alkaline phosphatase, 5'-nucleotidase, phosphodiesterase I, and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase of bovine milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) were selectively solubilized by nonionic detergents such as Triton X-100, Tween 20, Nonidet P-40, Liponox NCK, and Emulgen 109-P. On the other hand, the extractability of MFGM protein with these detergents was less than 50%. Judging from the recovery of total activity, it is likely that alkaline phosphatase, phosphodiesterase I, and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase are activated by nonionic detergents, whereas 5'-nucleotidase is somewhat inhibited by the detergents, except for Tween 20, and acid phosphatase is strongly inhibited by all detergents. In addition, solubilization of the protein with the nonionic detergents was found to be somewhat selective by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. There was no appreciable difference between the five brands of nonionic detergents used as regards the extractability of protein and the enzymatic activity of the extracted marker enzymes of MFGM, except that the solubilizing ability of Tween 20 was relatively low.[1]References
