The question of whether an injective module E over a noncommutative noetherian ring R remains injective after localization with respect to a denominator set X⊆R is addressed. (For a commutative noetherian ring, the answer is well-known to be positive.) Injectivity of the localization E[X-1] is obtained provided either R is fully bounded (a result of K. A. Brown) or X consists of regular normalizing elements. In general, E [X-1] need not be injective, and examples are constructed. For each positive integer n, there exists a simple noetherian domain R with Krull and global dimension n+1, a left and right denominator set X in R, and an injective right R-module E such that E[X-1 has injective dimension n; moreover, E is the injective hull of a simple module.
