To purify cytoplasmic and mitochondrial isoenzymes of
aspartate aminotransferase
(
EC 2.6.1.1
) from human liver. We used heat treatment, ammonium sulfate precipitation, anion- and cation-exchange chromatography, affinity chromatography, and isoelectric focusing. Final preparations of the isoenzymes were homogeneous, with specific activities of 198 and 208 kU/g for the cytoplasmic and the mitochondrial enzymes, respectively. The mitochondrial isoenzyme focused as a single band with a pl value of 9.60, whereas the cytoplasmic isoenzyme had subforms with pl values of 5.22, 5.42, and 5.62 at 4 degrees C. In Tris . HCl buffer, both isoenzymes have an activity maximum at pH 7.8. In [bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amino]tris(hydroxymethyl)methane (
Bistris
) buffer, however, the mitochondrial isoenzyme also showed an optimum pH of 6.7.
