In enzymology, an alcohol oxidase (EC 1.1.3.13) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
- a primary alcohol + O2 an aldehyde + H2O2
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are primary alcohol and O2, whereas its two products are aldehyde and H2O2.
This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-OH group of the donor with oxygen as the acceptor. It employs one cofactor, FAD.
