CAS 9046-28-0
:Glycerol phosphate oxidase
Description:
Glycerol phosphate oxidase (GPO) is an enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of glycerol phosphate to dihydroxyacetone phosphate, producing hydrogen peroxide as a byproduct. It is classified as an oxidoreductase and plays a crucial role in glycerol metabolism, particularly in the context of energy production and lipid metabolism. GPO is typically found in various microorganisms and is utilized in biochemical assays to measure glycerol levels in biological samples. The enzyme operates optimally under specific pH and temperature conditions, which can vary depending on the source organism. Glycerol phosphate oxidase is also of interest in biotechnology and clinical diagnostics due to its ability to generate hydrogen peroxide, which can be used in various applications, including antimicrobial treatments and biosensors. Its CAS number, 9046-28-0, identifies it in chemical databases, facilitating research and development in fields such as enzymology and metabolic engineering. Overall, GPO is a significant enzyme with diverse applications in both research and industry.
