Xanthine-agarose is used for protein chromatography, affinity chromatography and specialty resins. Xanthine-agarose has been used to purify and determine molecular properties of urate oxidase from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. Xanthine-agarose has also been used to determine physicochemical properties and states of sulfhydryl groups of uricase from Candida utilis.
Caffeine biosynthesis comprises sequential methylations at N-7, N-3 and N-1 of the xanthine ring catalysed by S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM)-dependent methyltransferase activities that, to date, have not been resolved. Enzyme extracts were prepared from young, emerging coffee leaflets and following anion exchange

The G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) are a class of membrane proteins that trigger cellular responses to external stimuli, and are believed to be targets for nearly half of all pharmaceutical drugs on the market. However, little is known regarding their
Uricase (urate: oxygen oxidoreductase; EC 1.7.3.3) from the rust Puccinia recondita was purified to electrophoretic homogeneity. Preparations with a specific activity of 8.4 U/mg were used for characterization of the enzyme, which showed a strong similarity to other plant and
Isolation and characterization of uricase from bean leaves and its comparison with uredospore enzymes.
Urate oxidase (Uox) catalyses the first reaction of oxidative uricolysis, a three-step enzymatic pathway that allows some animals to eliminate purine nitrogen through a water-soluble compound. Inactivation of the pathway in hominoids leads to elevated levels of sparingly soluble urate
