1 We then studied the effects of different agents (dithiothreitol, heat and zinc ions) in restoring the activity of lead-inhibited ALA.D. Dithiothreitol aminolevulinate dehydratase Homo sapiens
2 The combination of zinc ions with heat and/or DTT gave the best activations, which correlated perfectly with ALA.D amounts. Dithiothreitol aminolevulinate dehydratase Homo sapiens
3 Consequently, the catalytic assay using zinc ions and DTT may be used in routine testing as an indirect measurement of ALA.D amount. Dithiothreitol aminolevulinate dehydratase Homo sapiens
