The xanthine-oxidizing enzyme of rat liver has been purified as an NAD+-dependent dehydrogenase (type D) and as the O2-dependent oxidase (type O). The purified D and O variants are nearly homogenous as judged by polyacrylamide discontinuous gel electrophoresis and are indistinguishable on sodium dodecyl sulfate-urea gels. The absorption spectrum of the type D enzyme is indistinguishable from that of the type O enzyme and closely resembles the spectra of xanthine-oxidizing enzymes from other sources. The types D and O enzymes have essentially the same cofactor composition. Oxidation of xanthine by type D is stimulated by NAD+with concomitant NADH formation. Type D is able to utilize NADH as well as xanthine as electron donor to various acceptors, in contrast to type O that is unable to oxidize NADH. Arsenite, cyanide and methanol completely abolish xanthine oxidation by the type D enzyme while affecting the activities with NADH to varying extents. In these respects rat liver xanthine dehydrogenase closely resembles chicken liver xanthine dehydrogenase. However, in contrast to the avian enzyme, the purified rat liver enzyme is unstable as a dehydrogenase and is gradually converted to an oxidase. This conversion is accompanied by an increase in the aerobic xanthine → cytochromecactivity. The native type D enzyme in rat liver extracts is precipitable with antibody prepared against purified type O. TheKmfor xanthine is not significantly different for the two forms.
