Figure 14a-d.: Each organ prep (except for carcass – see above) was 100 organs. Each bar represents an average of at least four preparations.
a: Membrane fraction comparison of total DPPIV activity/µg protein.
b: Cytosol fraction comparison of DPPIV activity/µg protein.
c: µg protein/organ for membrane fraction.
d: µg protein/organ for cytosol fraction.
Ovaries data are for aged virgins. Inseminated and virgin ovaries were assayed from 5-10 day old females. The data presented here are for virgin ovaries, as these data were less variable than for ovaries from inseminated females. In inseminated females the average activity for membrane fraction of ome1 was ~53% of wildtype and for the cytosol ~23% of wildtype.
