Agricultural Institute, Moorepark Research Centre, Fermoy, Co. Cork, Ireland.

Purine hydroxylase I from Aspergillus nidulans was purified 850-fold. The purified preparations exhibited the spectral and catalytic properties, including broad specificity for oxidizing and reducing substrates, typical of molybdenum/flavin/iron-sulphur-containing hydroxylases (oxotransferases).

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007658	Ketone Oxidoreductases	Oxidoreductases that are specific for KETONES.	Oxidoreductases, Ketone
D009243	NAD	A coenzyme composed of ribosylnicotinamide 5'-diphosphate coupled to adenosine 5'-phosphate by pyrophosphate linkage. It is found widely in nature and is involved in numerous enzymatic reactions in which it serves as an electron carrier by being alternately oxidized (NAD+) and reduced (NADH).
