Uricase
Uricase is also known as oxidase, urate or urate oxidase. Uricase can be found in soy bean, which makes uricase a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product. The enzyme urate oxidase (UO), or uricase or factor-independent urate hydroxylase, absent in humans, catalyzes the oxidation of uric acid to 5-hydroxyisourate: Uric acid + O2 + H2O ‚Üí 5-hydroxyisourate + H2O2 5-hydroxyisourate + H2O ‚Üí allantoin + CO2 .
