The amounts of lactase (beta-D-galactosidase, EC 3.2.1.23), sucrase (sucrose alpha-D-glucohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.48), maltase (alpha-D-glucosidase, EC 3.2.1.20) microvillus aminopeptidase (EC 3.4.11.2) and dipeptidyl peptidase IV (EC 3.4.14.-) in tangentially sectioned biopsies from jejunum were studied by quantitative immunoelectrophoresis and enzymic assays. All enzymes had their maximum activities near the mid-region of the villi and their lowest activities at the bases of the crypts. The ratio between enzyme activity and immunoreactive protein was constant along the villus-crypt axis. This result is consistent with a continuous brush-border-enzyme synthesis as the enterocytes migrate up the villi.
