Description
Introduction: Glycolate oxidase (HAO1) is a part of the superfamily of the alpha hydroxy acid oxidases (HAO) enzymes. HAO1 catalyses the FMN mediated oxidation of glycolate to glyoxylate and glyoxylate to oxalate by reducing oxygen to hydrogen peroxide. HAO1 is expressed mainly in the liver and pancreas and is most active on twocarbon substrates such as glycolate. HAO1 isthe main cause of hyperoxaluria, a disorder in which large deposits of calcium oxalate form kidney stones.
Description: HAO1 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 406 amino acids (1-370 a.a) and having a molecular mass of 45.0kDa. HAO1 is fused to a 36 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques
