  2. Alkaline phosphatase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkaline_phosphatase

    The enzyme alkaline phosphatase (ALP, alkaline phenyl phosphatase) is a phosphatase with the physiological role of dephosphorylating compounds. The enzyme is found across a multitude of organisms, prokaryotes and eukaryotes alike, with the same general function, but in different structural forms suitable to the environment they function in. Alkaline phosphatase is found in the periplasmic ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liver_function_tests

    Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is an enzyme in the cells lining the biliary ducts of the liver. It can also be found on the mucosal epithelium of the small intestine, proximal convoluted tubule of the kidneys, bone, liver, and placenta. It plays an important role in lipid transposition in small intestines and calcification of bones. 50% of all the ...

    In experiential studies, isoenzymes, which are distinct forms of alkaline phosphatase generated by these tumors, can raise the total volume of alkaline phosphatase in the blood. The Regan isoenzyme [ clarification needed ] [ 13 ] is one of the best studied [ clarification needed ] of these isoenzymes that is linked to several human cancers.

    3.) Isoenzymes of alkaline phosphatase: [7] Six isoenzymes have been identified. The enzyme is a monomer, the isoenzymes are due to the differences in the carbohydrate content (sialic acid residues). The most important ALP isoenzymes are α 1-ALP, α 2-heat labile ALP, α 2-heat stable ALP, pre-β ALP and γ-ALP.
