Comment
This enzyme was previously thought to be a copper protein, but it is now known that the enzymes from soy bean (Glycine max), the mould Aspergillus flavus and Bacillus subtilis contains no copper nor any other transition-metal ion. The 5-hydroxyisourate formed decomposes spontaneously to form allantoin and CO2, although there is an enzyme-catalysed pathway in which EC
3.5.2.17 , hydroxyisourate hydrolase, catalyses the first step. The enzyme is different from EC
1.14.13.113 (FAD-dependent urate hydroxylase).
History
