General annotation (Comments)
| Function | Catalyzes an oxidative deamination of predominantly hydrophobic and aromatic L-amino acids, thus producing hydrogen peroxide that may contribute to the diverse toxic effects of this enzyme. Exhibits diverse biological activities, such as apoptosis, antibacterial activities against both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria and antiparasitic activities, as well as induction of platelet aggregation. Effects of snake L-amino oxidases on platelets are controversial, since they either induce aggregation or inhibit agonist-induced aggregation. These different effects are probably due to different experimental conditions. This protein may also induce hemorrhage, hemolysis, and edema. Ref.1 |
| Catalytic activity | An L-amino acid + H2O + O2 = a 2-oxo acid + NH3 + H2O2. |
| Cofactor | FAD. Ref.1 |
| Subunit structure | Homodimer; non-covalently linked. Ref.1 |
| Subcellular location | |
| Tissue specificity | Expressed by the venom gland. |
| Post-translational modification | N-glycosylated By similarity. |
| Miscellaneous | Has parasiticidal activities against leishmania, as a result of enzyme-catalyzed hydrogen peroxide production (Ref.1). |
| Sequence similarities | Belongs to the flavin monoamine oxidase family. FIG1 subfamily. |
| Biophysicochemical properties | Kinetic parameters: KM=46.7 µM for L-Leu Ref.1 pH dependence: Optimum pH is 6.5. |
