Peroxisomal oxidases: cytochemical localization and biological relevance
Prog Histochem Cytochem.
1989.
Abstract
(1) alpha-HAOX has a broad substrate specificity. In rat kidney, the enzyme reacts with aliphatic and aromatic alpha-hydroxy acids, in rat liver, however, only with aliphatic ones. (2) The best substrate for the demonstration of alpha-HAOX activity in rat and human liver is glycolate. (3) alpha-hydroxy butyric acid is the best substrate in the luminometric assay for the demonstration of alpha-HAOX activity in the rat kidney, whereas glycolate is not catalysed by the enzyme. (4) In the proximal tubulus epithelial cells of the rat kidney alpha-HAOX is concentrated in the peripheral matrix of the peroxisomes.
