Structural and functional insights into the catalytic inactivity of the major fraction of buffalo milk xanthine oxidoreductase.

Structural and functional insights into the catalytic inactivity of the major fraction of buffalo milk xanthine oxidoreductase.

BACKGROUND: Xanthine oxidoreductase (XOR) existing in two interconvertible forms, xanthine dehydrogenase (XDH) and xanthine oxidase (XO), catabolises xanthine to uric acid that is further broken down to antioxidative agent allantoin. XOR also produces free radicals serving as second messenger and mi...
