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.

Nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes (N-CNTs) provide a simple, robust, and unique platform for biosensing. Their catalytic activity toward the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and subsequent hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) disproportionation creates a sensitive electrochemical response to enzymatically generated H(2)O(2) on the N-CNT

In this work, a novel simple and sensitive electrochemical immunosensor was developed based on lactate oxidase as a single electrochemical probe for the detection of carcinoma antigen 125 (CA125). Chitosan-gold nanoparticle/multiwall carbon nanotube/graphene oxide (CS-AuNP/MWCNT/GO) was used as the electrode

By making use of the aggregation-induced emission feature of silole 1 and the cascade reactions among l-lactic acid (LA), lactate oxidase (LOD), and dodecanoic hydrazine (DH), a new fluorometric "turn-on" method is developed for the detection of LA.

An amperometric sensor for lactate quantification is presented. The developed biosensor requires only 0.2 U of lactate oxidase, which is immobilized in a mucin/albumin hydrogel matrix. By protecting the platinum surface with a Nafion membrane, typical interference related to negatively

L-Lactate oxidase (LOX) belongs to a large family of flavoenzymes that catalyze oxidation of α-hydroxy acids. How in these enzymes the protein structure controls reactivity presents an important but elusive problem. LOX contains a prominent tyrosine in the substrate binding
