New insights into purine metabolism in metabolic diseases: role of xanthine oxidoreductase activity.

American Journal of Physiology. Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2020
Xanthine oxidoreductase (XOR) consists of two different forms, xanthine dehydrogenase (XDH) and xanthine oxidase (XO), and is a rate-limiting enzyme of uric acid production from hypoxanthine and xanthine. Uric acid is the end-product of purine metabolism

Human NADH:Ubiquinone Oxidoreductase

Journal of Bioenergetics and Biomembranes, 2001
NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase consists of at least 43 proteins; seven are encoded by the mitochondrial genome, while the remainder are encoded by the nuclear genome. A deficient activity of this enzyme complex is frequently observed in the clinical heterogeneous group of mitochondrial disorders, with Leigh (-like) disease as the main contributor ...

Structure and electrochemistry of oxidoreductases

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. B, Biological Sciences, 1987
The principles on which Nature has developed multifunctional redox centres, covering a large range of potentials, protected from water and oxygen and surrounded by highly specific proteins, are demonstrated. Structures and accessibilities of the active sites of iron-sulphur proteins, sulphur proteins, flavoproteins, cytochromes and copper proteins are ...

Aldonolactone Oxidoreductases

2014
Vitamin C is a widely used vitamin. Here we review the occurrence and properties of aldonolactone oxidoreductases, an important group of flavoenzymes responsible for the ultimate production of vitamin C and its analogs in animals, plants, and single-cell organisms.

Xanthine Oxidoreductase Inhibitors

2020
Xanthine oxidase inhibitors are primarily used in the clinical prevention and treatment of gout associated with hyperuricemia. The archetypal xanthine oxidase inhibitor, Allopurinol has been shown to have other beneficial effects such as a reduction in vascular reactive oxygen species and mechano-energetic uncoupling.

Applications of oxidoreductases

Current Opinion in Biotechnology, 1999
Oxidoreductases comprise the large class of enzymes that catalyze biological oxidation/reduction reactions. Because many chemical and biochemical transformations involve oxidation/reduction processes, developing practical biocatalytic applications of oxidoreductases has long been an important goal in biotechnology.
