The specific activity of the cytosolic 5'-nucleotidase in regenerating liver increased to 175% of the control level of sham-operated animals during the 2nd and 3rd day and remained elevated most of the experimental period. The total cytosolic 5'-nucleotidase activity of the regenerating liver reached the level of control rats between 2 and 3 days after the operation. The variation pattern of the enzyme, which was distinctly different from variations of other known phosphohydrolases, was strikingly similar to that of the salvage enzyme hypoxanthine/guanine phosphoribosyltransferase.
