Published: January 1991

In vitro effects of uric acid (2-6-8 trioxypurine) on purified human neutrophil alkaline phosphatase were studied. A marked activation of the enzyme catalyzed reaction is observed. This activation is dose and pH dependent and not influenced by dialysis. Uric acid can form a stable complex with alkaline phosphatase, whose biochemical characteristics (heat stability, reactivity towards some inhibitors) are significantly modified.
