The subcellular distributions of six digestive and non-digestive enzymes (α-glucosidase, β-glucosidase, alkaline phosphatase, acid phosphatase, aminopeptidase and lactate dehydrogenase) of Eurygaster integriceps have been studied. The subcellular distributions of acid phosphatase and α-glucosidase are similar and the gradient ultracentrifugation profiles of these two enzymes overlap. Two partially membrane-bound enzymes, alkaline phosphatase and β-glucosidase have similar distributions in differential centrifugation fractions, which are different from that of α-glucosidase. Sucrose gradient ultracentrifugation of membranes from luminal contents showed that β-glucosidase carrying membranes are heavier. SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) revealed that the profile of proteins extracted from β-glucosidase carrying membranes is different from that of α-glucosidase carrying membranes. We conclude that β-glucosidase and aminopeptidase are markers of microvillar membrane (MM) and perimicrovillar space, respectively, while α-glucosidase and acid phosphatase are perimicrovillar markers. In E. integriceps V1 luminal content is a rich source of PMM and MM and that is used to resolve these membranes.
