Uricase, Arthrobacter globiformis

Uricase, Arthrobacter globiformis is a peroxidase enzyme. It catalyzes the oxidation of uric acid, converting it into the soluble product allantoin. Uricase, Arthrobacter globiformis can be used for the determination of uric acid levels in serum. A deficiency of uricase in mammals can lead to kidney diseases caused by the accumulation of uric acid. Uricase, Arthrobacter globiformis can be utilized in research on gout and hyperuricemia[1][2].
