EXPRESSION
ORGANISM
UNIPROT
LITERATURE
expression is induced in presence of urate
expression is induced in presence of urate, with substrate inhibition of production above 8.9 mM
highest expression yields are obtained in medium containing 0.8% maltose and 1.2% soybean powder as carbon and nitrogen sources, respectively
maximum expression upon growth on lactose as carbon source and urea as nitrogen source
optimum uricase production is in basal medium containing sucrose as a sole carbon source, uric acid as a nitrogen source at pH 6. Presence of cysteine HCl, cystine and glutamic acid enhances uricase production
