L-amino acid oxidase (LAAO) is used to convert L-amino acids to their corresponding α-keto acids. Product A2805 is from Crotalus durissus venom. L-amino acid oxidase, from Sigma, has been used in leucine aminopeptidase (LAP) activity assays 1.
L-amino acid oxidase is involved in various metabolic pathways such as alanine and aspartate metabolism, methionine metabolism, valine, leucine and isoleucine degradation, tyrosine metabolism, phenylalanine metabolism, tryptophan metabolism, phenylalanine, tyrosine and tryptophan biosynthesis, and alkaloid biosynthesis 2. It is found in microorganisms and in animal tissue, especially in kidney and liver.
