Purification and characterization of extracellular Pseudomonas aeruginosa urate oxidase enzyme.
Urate oxidase (uricase) was isolated and purified from Pseudomonas aeruginosa to apparent homogeneity using ammonium sulphate precipitation followed by ion exchange and gel filtration chromatography. The specific activity of the purified uricase enzyme was found to be 636.36 with the use of uric acid as a substrate. The purified uricase enzyme is a monomeric protein with molecular weight of 64 ...
متن کاملUrate oxidase: primary structure and evolutionary implications.
Urate oxidase, or uricase (EC 1.7.3.3), is a peroxisomal enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of uric acid to allantoin in most mammals. In humans and certain other primates, however, the enzyme has been lost by some unknown mechanism. To identify the molecular basis for this loss, urate oxidase cDNA clones were isolated from pig, mouse, and baboon, and their DNA sequences were determined. The m...
متن کاملLoss of urate oxidase activity in hominoids and its evolutionary implications.
We have determined and compared the promoter, coding, and intronic sequences of the urate oxidase (Uox) gene of various primate species. Although we confirm the previous observation that the inactivation of the gene in the clade of the human and the great apes results from a single CGA to TGA nonsense mutation in exon 2, we find that the inactivation in the gibbon lineage results from an indepe...
متن کاملThe measurement of the cytochrome oxidase activity of enzyme preparations.
containing 1 ml. 15 % glycerol solution, 1-0 ml. 0-1 M-sodium acetate, 0-5 ml. 0-3 M-bicarbonate solution and 0 5 ml. of the enzyme solution. Occurrence of the back reaction would have given rise to an uptake of C02 from the system, but in fact no such uptake was observed. Under these conditions, therefore, no back reaction takes place, so that the incompleteness ofthe de-esterification cannot ...
متن کاملCharacterization of aldehyde oxidase enzyme activity in cryopreserved human hepatocytes.
Substrates of aldehyde oxidase (AO), for which human clinical pharmacokinetics are reported, were selected and evaluated in pooled mixed-gender cryopreserved human hepatocytes in an effort to quantitatively characterize AO activity. Estimated hepatic clearance (Cl(h)) for BIBX1382, carbazeran, O⁶-benzylguanine, zaleplon, and XK-469 using cryopreserved hepatocytes was 18, 17, 12, <4.3, and <4.3 ...
متن کاملEfficacy of urate oxidase (uricozyme) in tumour lysis induced urate nephropathy.
Urate oxidase (uricozyme) is an enzyme of non-human origin capable of oxidizing human uric acid to allantoin, a highly soluble product at renal tubule pH. We report its efficacy in three patients with acute urate nephropathy due to tumour lysis in chronic lymphatic leukaemia and high grade lymphoma. Two patients had an additional obstructive nephropathy due to ureteric urate crystals. An intrav...
