Abstract
The distribution of acid phosphatase has been investigated in normal and virus-transformed cultured hamster and mouse fibroblasts. The enzyme was found to be present in lysosomes, autophagic vacuoles and elements of the Golgi apparatus. It was also found to be associated with a surface coat in some virus-transformed mouse cells and in the cytoplasm of both normal and transformed hamster cells.
