Application

D-amino acid oxidase (DAO) is a potential target molecule for the treatment of chronic pain and schizophrenia [1][2]. D-amino acid oxidase is used to oxidize D-amino acids to their corresponding imino acids.

Other Notes

One unit will oxidatively deaminate 1.0 μmole of D-alanine to pyruvate per minute at pH 8.3 at 25 °C, in the presence of a catalase.

  2. If I store it at -4 degrees Celsius instead of -20 degrees Celsius, will the enzyme denature so much that it cannot be used? Also, if I expose it to room temperature for use in an experiment and then store it at -4 degrees Celsius, will it be usable again

    1 answer
    1. This product should be stored at -20 °C as a powder. Information on storing the product in solution is not available, and it is recommended to prepare the product fresh before use.

  3. Hello, I am doing my research about D-amino acid oxidase from porcine kidney. For further calculations I need molar extinction coefficient of pkDAAO. Maybe You have bigger description or some kind of information about it? Thank You.

    1 answer
    1. There are two extinction coefficient values available:

      Assuming all Cys residues form cystines - 1.935 at 280 nm in water, 0.1% (1 g/L)
      Assuming all Cys residues are reduced - 1.929 at 280 nm in water, 0.1% (1 g/L)
