Two distinct isozymes of malic enzyme from bovine brain have been separated and purified partially. By preparing homogenates in solutions of different ionic strength and by extracting isolated mitochondria, it has been established that one isozyme (BI) is located in the cytosol and the other in the mitochondria (B II). The isozymes differ not only in their electrophoretic and chromatographic mobilities, but also in their kinetic properties, since only the mitochondrial variant shows cooperativity at low concentrations of l (−) malate. The isozymes also show a marked difference in their capability to catalyze the reductive carboxylation of pyruvate to malate, since the carboxylation rate approaches 1 5 that of the decarboxylation velocity for the cytosol enzyme, and only 1 100 for the mitochondrial isozyme.
