Purification of aldehyde oxidase from bovine ciliary body.

abstract：:The lacrimal gland stores retinyl esters which are synthesized by the enzyme acyl CoA:retinyl acyl transferase. Retinol is released from retinyl ester reserves by retinyl ester hydrolase (REH). Since the lacrimal gland secretes retinol, this gland should also contain this enzyme. To identify bile salt-dependent REH ac...
