Figure 5. Determination of S1P phosphatase and lyase activity in liver homogenates and RBC membranes.

Figure 5

Membrane fractions were prepared from washed RBCs (A) or liver tissue (B). S1P phosphatase (P'tase) and S1P lyase activities were quantified by measuring the rates of formation of sphingosine and hexadecenal (detected as its semicarbazone) as described in the Materials and methods section.
