Drosophila aconitase activity and reactivation
very useful!
It would be useful to mention the incubation temperature, e.g., Bubber et al (in Neurochemistry International 2004, 45: 1021 – 28 and presumably this one as well - Annals of Neurology 2005, 57: 695 – 703) reactivate [mouse] aconitase at 37°C. It would also help if other conditions were described, such as if anaerobic conditions were maintained during reactivation (e.g. use of glove bags or replacing air with nitrogen/argon in tubes). I assume this procedure was conducted at room temperature in aerobic conditions, which would require operator to carry out assay immediately to prevent loss of activity in a time dependent manner due to aerial oxidation.
