Autoradiographic localization of [3H]-guanidinoethylmercaptosuccinic acid binding sites in rat islets of Langerhans.

Abstract:

:Incubation of unfixed, frozen sections of rat pancreas with tritiated guanidinoethylmercaptosuccinic acid (GEMSA) resulted in a localization of [3H]-GEMSA autoradiographic grains over the islets of Langerhans, suggesting that a carboxypeptidase H-like enzyme occurs in the islet.
