General description

Lactate oxidase is a globular flavoprotein and utilizes flavin mononucleotide (FMN) as the cofactor. The enzyme contains a major tyrosine in the substrate-binding pocket and a flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) active site. Lactate oxidase has several bacterial sources.
Formerly E.C. number 1.1.3.2

Application

Lactate Oxidase from Pediococcus sp. has been:
  • used to functionalize the detection reservoirs for lactate analysis
  • used in sequential enzymatic reactions to measure lactate production in the supernatants of microglial cultures
  • immobilized onto a carbon electrode to generate a self-powered lactate sensor

Biochem/physiol Actions

Lactate oxidase is used in immobilization or enzyme-based labels for designing biochemical analytical devices such as immunosensors. This enzyme catalyzes the oxidation of lactate to produce pyruvate and H2O2. Lactate oxidase is useful in the first-generation biosensor approach for the electrochemical detection of lactate.

Unit Definition

One unit will oxidize 1.0 μmole of L-lactate to pyruvate and H2O2 per min at pH 6.5 at 37 °C.

Detection of analytes in complex biological samples, such as milk and blood, normally requires sample pretreatment. These pretreatment regimes reduce assay throughput and increase testing costs. Technologies that make it possible to eliminate sample pretreatment are of great industrial interest.

Following hemorrhage-causing injury, lactate levels rise and correlate with the severity of injury and are a surrogate of oxygen debt. Posttraumatic injury also includes hyperglycemia, with continuously elevated glucose levels leading to extensive tissue damage, septicemia, and multiple organ dysfunction
