[Influence of ions on the activity of rat parotid DNase].
The activity of DNase, purified from rat parotid saliva was studied as affected by 7 metal ions. It is found that Mg2+ activated the salivary DNase. Ca2+ and Ba2+ in concentrations exceeding 10(-3) M revealed the inhibitory action, while Zn2+ and Cu2+ under these conditions have an essential effect on the enzyme activity. Al3+ produced no significant effect on the DNase activity. The rat parotid DNase activity is the highest in imidazol and tris-HCl buffers (pH 7.2-7.4) in the presence of 2.5 . 10(-2) M of Mg2+.
