Xanthine Oxidoreductase Inhibition by NADH as a Regulatory Factor of Purine Metabolism

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 122B))

Abstract

Xanthine oxidoreductase occurs in mammalian tissues mostly in a NAD+-dependent form1. In rat liver this dehydrogenase form accounts for over 85 % of total enzyme, the rest being an intermediate dehydrogenase-oxidase form which preferably reacts with NAD% but can also use O2as an electron acceptor2. Both these forms are inhibited by NADH2, in contrast to the O2-dependent form3 arising from them2.
