Product Description
Recombinant Urate Oxidase is an enzyme that plays a significant role in the metabolism of uric acid, converting it into a more soluble compound, allantoin. Belonging to the family of oxidoreductases, this enzyme facilitates the breakdown of uric acid, a byproduct of purine metabolism, thereby preventing its accumulation and subsequent formation of urate crystals. With a molecular weight of approximately X kilodaltons, recombinant urate oxidase offers potential therapeutic applications in managing conditions such as gout and tumor lysis syndrome by efficiently reducing uric acid levels.
