Tissue Specificity | Detected in milk (at protein level). |
Post Translational Modifications | Subject to partial proteolysis.this alters the enzyme from the dehydrogenase form (D) to the oxidase form (O). Contains sulfhydryl groups that are easily oxidized (in vitro).this alters the enzyme from the dehydrogenase form (D) to the oxidase form (O). |
Function | Key enzyme in purine degradation. Catalyzes the oxidation of hypoxanthine to xanthine. Catalyzes the oxidation of xanthine to uric acid. Contributes to the generation of reactive oxygen species. Has also low oxidase activity towards aldehydes (in vitro). |
