Application

Application Comment Organism
diagnostics the straightforward dynein-ATPase assay can be used to obtain data of functional interest in clinical or experimental settings, to test the effect of new drugs that could inhibit dynein-ATPase actitivty and therefor sperm motility Homo sapiens

Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
EDTA in presence of 1 mM, 12% activity compared to assay without EDTA Homo sapiens
Li+ 6 mM, 72% inhibition Homo sapiens
additional information insensitive to 2 mM ouabain, 0.001 mM oligomycin, and 0.001 mM thapsgargin Homo sapiens
vanadate inhibited by 0.01 mM, this inhibition is reversed in the presence of 1 mM norepinephrine, by reducing vanadate to oxovanadium Homo sapiens

sperm axenome-containg fractions, free of plasma membranes, dynein ATPase is the intracelluar motor for sperm motility, from healthy donors with either normozoospermia or asthenozoospermia, as indicated by a sperm motility lower than 50% (WHO grade a + b) Homo sapiens
