| Accepted name: |
oxalate oxidase |
| Reaction: |
oxalate + O2 + 2 H+ = 2 CO2 + H2O2 |
| Other name(s): |
aero-oxalo dehydrogenase; oxalic acid oxidase |
| Systematic name: |
oxalate:oxygen oxidoreductase |
| Comments: |
Contains Mn2+ as a cofactor. The enzyme is not a flavoprotein as had been thought [3]. |
