Species differences in L-leucinaminopeptidase activity during tooth formation in the macaque monkey and rat

Leucinaminopeptidase (E.G. 3.4.11.1) was demonstrated by histochemical means in developing teeth and bone in monkeys ( Macaco irus) and rats. In the tooth-forming cells of the monkey enzyme activity was only found in cementoblasts. In contrast to this finding, leucinaminopeptidase activity could onl...

Zusammenfassung:Leucinaminopeptidase (E.G. 3.4.11.1) was demonstrated by histochemical means in developing teeth and bone in monkeys ( Macaco irus) and rats. In the tooth-forming cells of the monkey enzyme activity was only found in cementoblasts. In contrast to this finding, leucinaminopeptidase activity could only be demonstrated in the post-secretory ameloblasts of the rat.
