The localization of the membrane-associated thiol oxidase in rat kidney was investigated. Fractionation of the kidney cortex by differential centrifugation demonstrated that the enzyme is found in the plasma membrane. The crude plasma membrane was fractionated by density-gradient centrifugation on Percoll to obtain purified brush-border and basal-lateral membranes. Gamma-Glutamyltransferase, alkaline phosphatase and aminopeptidase M were assayed as brush-border marker enzymes, and (Na+ + K+)-stimulated ATPase was assayed as a basal-lateral-membrane marker enzyme. Thiol oxidase activity and distribution were determined and compared with those of the marker enzymes. Its specific activity was enriched 18-fold in the basal-lateral membrane fraction relative to its activity in the cortical homogenate, and its distribution paralleled that of (Na+ + K+)-stimulated ATPase. This association indicates that thiol oxidase is localized in the same fraction as (Na+ + K+)-stimulated ATPase, i.e. the basal-lateral region of the plasma membrane of the kidney tubular epithelium.
