In enzymology, a bilirubin oxidase (EC 1.3.3.5) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction 2 bilirubin + O2↔ 2 biliverdin + 2 H2O. Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are bilirubin and O2, whereas its two products are biliverdin and H2O. This enzyme belongs to the ...
Xanthine oxidase is a form of xanthine oxidoreductase, a type of enzyme that generates reactive oxygen species. These enzymes catalyze the oxidation of hypoxanthine to xanthine and can further catalyze the oxidation of xanthine to uric acid. These enzymes play an important role ...
Sarcosine oxidase (SAO) is an enzyme that catalyzes the oxidative demethylation of sarcosine to yield glycine, H2O2, 5, 10-CH2-tetrahydrofolate in a reaction requiring H4-tetrahydrofolate and oxygen. sarcosine + H2O + O2 = glycine + formaldehyde + H2O2. ...
In enzymology, an acyl-CoA oxidase (EC 1.3.3.6) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction acyl-CoA + O2↔ trans-2, 3-dehydroacyl-CoA + H2O2. Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are acyl-CoA and O2, whereas its two products are trans-2, 3-dehydroacyl-CoA and H2O2. ...
Diamine oxidase from porcine kidney is a homodimer consisting of 2 equal subunits with a molecular weight of 87 kDa each. Each subunit contains one molecule of pyridoxal phosphate and one atom of copper. The molecular mass of the enzyme is found to be 170 kDa. The enzyme is a ...
Sarcosine oxidase (SAO) is an enzyme that catalyzes the oxidative demethylation of sarcosine to yield glycine, H2O2, 5, 10-CH2-tetrahydrofolate in a reaction requiring H4-tetrahydrofolate and oxygen. sarcosine + H2O + O2 = glycine + formaldehyde + ...
In enzymology, a pyruvate oxidase (EC 1.2.3.3) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction: pyruvate + phosphate + O2 ↔ acetyl phosphate + CO2 + H2O2. The 3 substrates of this enzyme are pyruvate, phosphate, and O2, whereas its 3 products are acetyl phosphate, CO2, and ...
Amine oxidases (AO) are enzymes that catalyze the oxidation of a wide range of biogenic amines including many neurotransmitters, histamine and xenobiotic amines. There are two classes of amine oxidases: flavin-containing (EC 1.4.3.4) and copper-containing (EC 1.4.3.6). ...
In enzymology, a lactate 2-monooxygenase (EC 1.13.12.4) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction: (S)-lactate + O2 ↔ acetate + CO2 + H2O. Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are (S)-lactate and O2, whereas its 3 products are acetate, CO2, and ...
