Green algae have two different enzymes that catalyze the oxidation of glycolate. Some algae utilize the peroxisomal enzyme glycolate oxidase, while other algae use the mitochondrial enzyme glycolate dehydrogenase. The unicellular green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii has an active glycolate dehydrogenase. With the recent sequencing of the C. reinhardtii genome it was found that C. reinhardtii also has a gene encoding a putative glycolate oxidase. In this paper the presence of genes encoding both glycolate oxidase and glycolate dehydrogenase in C. reinhardtii is discussed.
