Peroxisomal chain-shortening of prostaglandin F2 alpha.

We have recently reported that prostaglandin F2 alpha can be chain-shortened by isolated rat liver peroxisomes. In the present study it is further established by cell fractionation experiments that the enzymes involved in this reaction are localized to peroxisomes. Under the conditions employed, the...
