Abstract
Description
field of invention
[0001] The invention relates to a protease with uric acid decomposition activity prepared by genetic engineering technology, more specifically, the invention relates to a novel urate oxidase protein and a preparation method thereof. Background technique
[0002] Uric acid oxidase (urate oxidase, uricase, uricase, E.C.1.7.3.3) is an enzyme in the degradation and metabolism pathway in organisms, which catalyzes the oxidation of uric acid to allantoin with higher solubility, and the solubility of allantoin is higher than that of uric acid About 10 times higher, is the more easily excreted purine metabolite. Uric acid oxidase is found in many species, but it is lacking in higher mammalian primates and humans, so uric acid is the end product of purine metabolism. The solubility of uric acid and its salts in water is very low. Excessive accumulation in the blood will lead to hyperuricemia. If uric acid forms crystals and deposits in soft tissues, joints, organs...
