Xanthine oxidase catalyzes the oxidation of hypoxanthine to xanthine and xanthine to uric acid as follows
The enzyme is well-suited to carry out the catalysis of these oxidative reactions, containing as it does four redox-active sites: molybdenum, flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) and a pair of iron-sulfur centers of the ferredoxin type (Fe2S2). The purine substrates interact with the enzyme at the molybdenum site of xanthine oxidase and oxygen at the flavin site. The two metabolic reactions above ...
متن کاملUric acid and xanthine oxidoreductase in wound healing.
Chronic wounds are an important health problem because they are difficult to heal and treatment is often complicated, lengthy and expensive. For a majority of sufferers the most common outcomes are long-term immobility, infection and prolonged hospitalisation. There is therefore an urgent need for effective therapeutics that will enhance ulcer healing and patient quality of life, and will reduc...
متن کاملUric acid and xanthine oxidase: perspectives in chronic heart failure
Heart failure continues to be one of the major causes of morbidity and mortality in the western world. Advances in cardiovascular medicine have lead to unearth the possible markers of disease progression. Hyperuricemia is one of the potential metabolic markers for heart failure. In this review, we discuss the beneficial and deleterious role of uric acid and xanthine oxidase in the pathophysiolo...
متن کاملNitrogen in stored poultry litter: uric Acid and xanthine.
Laboratory incubations of four broiler litter (BL) samples at 30°C were performed to investigate the effect of water content on the decay of uric acid nitrogen (UAN) and xanthine nitrogen (XN). UAN and XN concentrations increased in all samples during a period of 1 to 8 d before declining for the remaining 30 d. The increases may be the result of guanine and adenine catabolism. The slopes of li...
