Hydroxyacid oxidase 1 (HAO1)

Target
HAO1
Molecular classification
Enzyme, Alpha-hydroxy acid oxidase, FMN-dependent enzyme
01

Overview

Hydroxyacid oxidase 1 (HAO1), also known as glycolate oxidase, is an FMN-dependent enzyme primarily involved in the oxidation of glycolate to glyoxylate and further to oxalate, with the concomitant reduction of oxygen to hydrogen peroxide. It plays a central role in peroxisomal metabolism and is highly expressed in the liver and pancreas. HAO1 is clinically relevant due to its involvement in hyperoxaluria and ethylene glycol poisoning.
