Specific inhibitors of three lysosomal proteinases are present in the cytosolic and lysosomal compartments of rabbit liver. The cytosolic inhibitors, purified by chromatography on DEAE-Trisacryl and Sephadex G-75, show specificities toward cathepsin M, cathepsins B and L, and
fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase
converting enzyme (CE), respectively, and are designated IM, IB/L, and
ICE
. Inhibitors with similar specificities have been isolated from the intralysosomal compartment. Two of these inhibitors, IM and
ICE
, are also present in the lysosomal membranes. The lysosomal distribution parallels that of the respective proteinases. The inhibitors are polypeptides with molecular weights of 5,000-10,000 for the two forms of IB/L, 12,500 for IM, and 10,000-40,000 for the
ICE
species.
