Description: The enzyme urate oxidase (UO), or uricase or factor-independent urate hydroxylase, absent in humans, catalyzes the oxidation of uric acid to 5-hydroxyisourate: Uric acid + O2 + H2O to 5-hydroxyisourate + H2O2 to allantoin + CO2
Uricase cancatalyze the enzymatic oxidation of uric acid to allantoate rapidly, so it is used to detect the amount of uric acid in the serum and urine.
