IMPORTANT CELLULAR MARKERS:
- Cellular markers are specific enzyme proteins acting as markers for particular organelle.
| ORGANELLE | MARKERS |
| Mitochondria | ATP synthase, Creatine kinase, Glutamate dehydrogenase |
| Plasma membrane | 5‘ -Nucleotidase, Adenyl cyclase, Na+K+ATP’ase |
| Lysosome | Acid phosphatase |
| Golgi apparatus | Galactosyl transferase, Golgi mannosidase II, Sialyl transferase. |
| Peroxisome | Catalase |
| Cytosol |
Lactate dehydrogenase
