Binding of nickel to testicular glutamate-ammonia ligase inhibits its enzymatic activity [PDF]
Molecular Reproduction and Development, 2011 Exposure to nickel has been shown to cause damage to the testis in several animal models. It is not known if the testis expresses protein(s) that can bind nickel. To test this, we used a nickel-binding assay to isolate testicular nickel-binding proteins.
