Pyruvate Oxidase from Aerococcus sp

SAN DIEGO - Aug. 28, 2024 - PRLog -- Pyruvate oxidase is an enzyme found in Aerococcus species that catalyzes the conversion of pyruvate to acetyl-CoA, producing hydrogen peroxide as a byproduct. This enzyme is involved in the metabolism of carbohydrates and energy production in these bacteria. It also contributes to the defense mechanism of Aerococcus species against oxidative stress by generating hydrogen peroxide, which acts as a bactericidal agent. This product has been used as a molecular tool for various biochemical applications. It has also been used in a wide array of other chemical and immunological applications. Custom bulk amounts of this product are available upon request.
