Biological Activity

[Description]:

Glycerol-3-phosphate oxidase is a key intermediate in glycerol metabolism. Glycerol-3-phosphate oxidase can be extracted from Escherichia coli. Glycerol-3-phosphate oxidase is the skeleton of phospholipids in membrane lipids, and also the substrate of respiratory chain. Glycerol-3-phosphate oxidase produces electrons through oxidation[1].
