Rat kidney cortex slices were homogenized with a polytron in an isoosmotic medium containing 5 mmol/l EGTA [ethyleneglycol bis(.beta.-aminoethyl ether)-N,N''-tetraacetic acid]. By 2 precipitations with MgCl2 (12 mmol/l) and differential centrifugation, brush border membranes were purified. The brush border marker enzymes alkaline phosphatase and aminopeptidase M were enriched 17.0 .+-. 5.3-fold and 16.7 .+-. 3.7-fold, respectively. By this method a high yield of brush border membranes was obtained (48.3 .+-. 7.9% for alkaline phosphatase; 47.0 .+-. 9.5% for aminopeptidase M). The acid phosphatase was enriched 5-fold, whereas other lysosomal enzymes (glucosaminidase, glucuronidase, cathepsin D) were enriched 0.2-fold. Acid phosphatase activity could not be washed out, but could be separated from alkaline phosphatase and leucine aminopeptidase by means of free flow electrophoresis and sucrose density gradient centrifugation. Vesicles prepared by the presently described Mg/EGTA-method show better transport properties, compared to vesicles prepared by the Ca method of Evers et al. (1978), whereas by SDS[sodium dodecyl sulfate]-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis no differences in the protein patterns were observed.
