| Accepted name: |
FAD-dependent urate hydroxylase |
| Reaction: |
urate + NADH + H+ + O2 = 5-hydroxyisourate + NAD+ + H2O |
| Other name(s): |
HpxO enzyme; FAD-dependent urate oxidase; urate hydroxylase |
| Systematic name: |
urate,NADH:oxygen oxidoreductase (5-hydroxyisourate-forming) |
| Comments: |
A flavoprotein. The reaction is part of the purine catabolic pathway in the bacterium Klebsiella pneumoniae. The enzyme is different from EC 1.7.3.3, factor-independent urate hydroxylase, found in most plants, which produces hydrogen peroxide. The product of the enzyme is a substrate for EC 3.5.2.17, hydroxyisourate hydrolase. |
