8, were incubated overnight at 37[degrees]C with pronase (Calbiochem, EMD Biosciences, San Diego, CA) at 1:100 wt/wt ratio and leucine aminopeptidase (Sigma-Aldrich) at 1:1,000 wt/wt ratio.
By an enzyme-histochemical method, leucine aminopeptidase reactivity was localized principally within the cytoplasm of granulated cells in the buccal cavity, esophagus, esophageal pouch, hepatopancreas, and the third intestinal region, which implies that these sites are responsible for the synthesis and secretion of this peptidase for the digestion of proteinaceous nutrients.
Additional isoenzyme markers are currently being sought, including leucine aminopeptidase (LAP), which has been resolved with the same buffers as MDH.
