Descriptor aldehído oxidasa
Scope note: Aldehído-oxidorreductasa que se expresa predominantemente en el HÍGADO, los PULMONES y el RIÑÓN. Cataliza la oxidación de diversos aldehídos orgánicos y de compuestos N-heterocíclicos para formar ÁCIDOS CARBOXÍLICOS, y también oxida derivados de quinolina y piridina. La enzima utiliza como cofactores el cofactor de molibdeno y la FAD.
