General description
Monomeric sarcosine oxidase (MSOX) is a flavoenzyme that catalyzes the oxidative demethylation of sarcosine (N-methylglycine) to yield glycine, formaldehyde, and hydrogen peroxide. Monomeric sarcosine oxidase can oxidize other secondary amino acids such as N-methyl-L-alanine, N-ethylglycine, and L-proline.
Sarcosine oxidase is a 44 kDa protein with covalently bound 1 mol of flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD). It belongs to the family of amino acid oxidases with bound FAD.
Application
Sarcosine oxidase from Bacillus sp. has been used as a positive control for detection of proteins with covalently bound flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) by UV. It has also been used in co-immobilization with other enzymes on platinum electrode for preparation of creatinine biosensor.
Sarcosine oxidase has been used in a study as part of a multienzyme cascade, that when immobilized constructed amperometric biosensors. Sarcosine oxidase has also been used in a study to investigate oxidation of amines by flavoproteins.
Unit Definition
One unit will form 1.0 μmole of formaldehyde from sarcosine per min at pH 8.3 at 37 °C.
