Choline oxidase is an enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of choline to betaine, producing hydrogen peroxide as a byproduct. It is classified as an oxidoreductase, specifically acting on the CH-NH group of donors with oxygen as the acceptor. This enzyme is typically derived from certain microorganisms, such as bacteria, and plays a role in the metabolism of choline, which is an essential nutrient for various biological functions, including neurotransmitter synthesis and cell membrane integrity. Choline oxidase exhibits specificity for its substrate and operates optimally under certain pH and temperature conditions, which can vary depending on the source organism. The enzyme's activity can be influenced by factors such as the presence of inhibitors or activators, and it is often studied for its potential applications in biotechnology and biochemistry, including biosensor development and metabolic engineering. Its CAS number, 9028-67-5, is a unique identifier that facilitates the identification and study of this specific enzyme in scientific literature and databases.

Choline Oxidase

<p>Choline oxidase (EC 1.1.3.17) is an enzyme that catalyzes the following reaction: choline + O2 + H20 ⇌ betaine aldehyde + H2O2One unit of choline oxidase will form 1 μmole of H2O2 by oxidizing choline to betaine aldehyde per min at pH 8.0 and 37 °C. You can remove the build-up of hydrogen peroxide using catalase.</p>
