Equals 11.3 (Mahler 1963). Isoelectric point: 6.3 (Mahler 1963). Inhibitors: Various purine analogues of urate (Bergmann et al. 1963; Baum et al. 1956), cyanide and other copper chelating agents. Fridovich (1965) reports that urate in alkaline solution may be converted to a potent inhibitor, oxonate. Specificity: The enzyme is highly specific for uric acid. (See Mahler 1963).
