Abstract
At the present time it is uncertain whether or not the cytosolic and particulate forms of tissue transglutaminase are distinct and discrete enzymes. In this study a number of physical and immunological similarities between the two forms are demonstrated, indicating that they share some common epitopes, although their native confirmations may differ.Keywords
