Oxidation occurs at the C6 position. The enzyme has a molecular weight of 68 ± 3 kDa, and the optimum pH is 7.0.Useful in the determination of lactose.Application Galactose Oxidase from Dactylium dendroides has been used as a component for galactose oxidase treatment of arabinogalactan. It has also been used to co-immobilise with peroxidase for the preparation of a biosensor for galactose detection. Galactose oxidase may be used as an analytical tool for the specific determination of D-galactose in blood plasma, plant extracts, and phospholipids. It could be used for the characterization of terminal D-galactoside units in several polymers. It may also be useful in the determination of lactose.1、Specificity :GAO has a wide substrate specificity, but remarkable stereospecificity, only oxidizing D-isomers of substrates (McPherson et al. 1992). GAO will oxidize galactose and some galactose derivatives in both free and polymeric form. Oxidation occurs at the C6 position. 2、Composition:GAO contains one Cu(II) atom yet catalyzes a two-electron transfer reaction (McPherson et al. 1992). The copper is bound by two tyrosines, and two histidines (Tyr272, Tyr495, His496, and His581). In a novel post-translational covalent modification, Tyr272 is linked by a thioether bond to cysteine (Cys228), suggesting the involvement of a tyrosine radical in the catalytic mechanism. Stabilization of the radical occurs because Tyr272 of the thioether bond is liganded to the copper, creating a stacking interaction with Trp290 (Whittaker et al. 1989, Ito et al. 1991, and Whittaker et al. 2005). The structure of the enzyme has revealed extensive beta-sheet secondary structure, consistent with the high stability of the enzyme (Kosman et al. 1974). Most extracellular proteins of eukaryotes are modified by glycosylation during passage through the ER and golgi, leading to greater glycosylation of extracellular than intracellular forms of a protein. Unusually, the intracellular form of GAO is more highly glycosylated (9% carbohydrate) and exhibits greater stability than the extracellular form (2% carbohydrate) (Medonca and Zancan 1988). Additionally, most proteins are modified by O- and/or N-glycosylation while GAO is only modified only by O-glycosylation (Kornfield and Kornfield 1985, and McPherson et al. 1992)3、Molecular Characteristics:The gaoA gene contains a long open reading frame from +324 to +2507, including the mature protein-coding sequence (+521 to +2507). It also contains a long untranslated upstream region and a putative pro-sequence with a monobasic cleavage site (McPherson et al. 1992).4、Characteristics of Galactose Oxidase:Protein Accession Number:P0CS93;Isoelectric point:7.75 (Theoretical)CATH Classification:Three domains:Class: Mainly BetaArchitecture: Sandwich, 7 PropellorTopology: Jelly Rolls, Methylamind Dehydrogenase; Chain H, Immunoglobulin-likeMolecular Weight68.5 kDa (calculated from translated DNA sequence and SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, McPherson et al. 1992)68.0 ± 3.0 kDa (determined from physical measurements, Cooper et al. 1959) Optimal pH:7.0 (Cooper et al. 1959) Extinction Coefficient:122,480 cm-1M-1 (Theoretical)E1%, 280 = 17.87 (Theoretical)InhibitorsCyanideDiethyldithiocarbamateAzideHydroxylamineEDTAApplicationsQuantitative determination of galactose in blood and other biological fluids (Frings and Pardue 1964, Hankin 1966, and Roth et al. 1965)Locating galactose histochemically (Roberts and Gupta 1965)Detecting and distinguishing glycoproteins (Itaya et al. 1975)5、Galactose Oxidase Assay:MethodThe reaction velocity is measured in a peroxidase/o-tolidine coupled system as an increase in A425 resulting from the oxidation of galactose.

Producing DNase I by recombinant means in an organism with much lower levels of endogenous RNase greatly facilitates purification of an enzyme with undetectable levels of RNase. The processes involved in the production and isolation of recombinant DNase I are completely devoid of animal based components which eliminates the possibility of introducing animal derived pathogens into bioprocessing procedures.Animal Free/AF.
