Abstract

The present invention includes a step of incubating a protein having NADH and / or NADPH oxidase activity together with NADH and / or NADPH in an aqueous solution, wherein NADH is converted to NAD + to and / or NADPH to NADP + A method for oxidation, wherein the protein comprises an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of the following, relating to the method i) An amino acid sequence having at least 80% sequence identity with Sequence ID No. 1, ii) an amino acid sequence encoded by a nucleic acid sequence having at least 80% identity with SEQ ID NO: 2, and iii) an amino acid sequence encoded by a nucleic acid that binds to a nucleic acid molecule complementary to the nucleic acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2 under stringent conditions, wherein stringent conditions preferably include washing at 65°C and with a salt concentration of 0.1 to 2 × SSC.
