  • Overview

    Description

    L–α–Glycerophosphate Oxidase (GPO) is a flavin-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of sn-glycerol-3-phosphate to dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP), with the production of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) as a byproduct. This reaction plays an essential role in glycerol metabolism, serving as a critical link between lipid catabolism, glycolysis, and lipid biosynthesis through the generation of DHAP—a central intermediate in energy and metabolic pathways. In clinical and biochemical applications, GPO is frequently used in enzymatic assays for the quantification of triglycerides and glycerol. The hydrogen peroxide produced is coupled with a colorimetric reaction, allowing for easy detection and measurement. Due to its specificity and efficiency, GPO plays a vital role in analytical biochemistry and is a useful tool in both clinical laboratories and metabolic research.

      Escherichia coli

      Detection Method

      Spectrophotometry

    • Concentration

      10 U/mg or more

      Activity

      Activity can be calculated by using the following formula:
      Volume activity (U/ mL)＝ ΔOD/ min (ΔOD test−ΔOD blank) × Vt × 2 × df /(13.2×1.0×Vs)
      ＝ ΔOD/ min × 4.696 × df
      Weight activity (U/mg)＝ (U/mL)×1/C
      Vt: Total volume (1.55 mL)
      Vs: Sample volume (0.05 mL)
      13.2: Millimolar absorption coefficient of quinoneimine dye
      2: Conversion factor (one mole of quinoneimine dye corresponds to two moles of glycerophophate)
      1.0: Light path length (cm)
      df: Dilution factor
      C: Enzyme concentration in dissolution (mg/mL)
