Related Product Information for gox enzyme
Since its discovery as an "antibiotic" (shown subsequently to be due to peroxide formation) there has been an interest in glucose oxidase, chiefly because of its utility in glucose estimation. For most clinical work the crude form of the A. niger enzyme has been satisfactory. However, it contains trace amount of polysaccharidases such as amylase, maltase and sucrase which can contribute to falsely high glucose levels. The purified enzyme is free of these traces and is recommended for analytical use in the presence of di-or polysaccharides. Glucose analytical systems employ the enzyme utilizing H2O2 production reacting with Fe(CN)-in the presence of luminol to produce luminescence proportional to the initial glucose concentration.

Uniprot Description

Catalytic activity: Beta-D-glucose + O2 = D-glucono-1,5-lactone + H2O2.

Cofactor: FAD.

Subunit structure: Homodimer.

Subcellular location: Secreted.

Miscellaneous: This enzyme is widely applied for the determination of glucose in body fluids and in removing residual glucose or oxygen from foods and beverages. Furthermore, glucose oxidase-producing molds such as aspergillus and penicillium species are used for the biological production of gluconic acid.

Sequence similarities: Belongs to the GMC oxidoreductase family.

Product Notes

The Glucose Oxidase, A. niger gox (Catalog #AAA653934) is an Enzyme produced from Aspergillus niger and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Glucose Oxidase, A. niger, Enzyme" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
