Spermine oxidase is a FAD-dependent enzyme that specifically oxidizes spermine, and
plays a central role in the highly regulated catabolism of polyamines in vertebrates. The …

Background Polyamine oxidase enzymes catalyze the oxidation of polyamines and
acetylpolyamines. Since polyamines are basic regulators of cell growth and proliferation …

Spermine oxidase (SMO) was discovered much more recently than other enzymes involved
in polyamine metabolism; this review summarizes 10 years of researches on this enzyme …

Polyamine oxidases are key enzymes responsible of the polyamine interconversion
metabolism in animal cells. Recently, a novel enzyme belonging to this class of enzymes …

SMO (spermine oxidase) and APAO (acetylpolyamine oxidase) are flavoenzymes that play a
critical role in the catabolism of polyamines. Polyamines are basic regulators of cell growth …

Spermine oxidase (SMO) is a flavoenzyme involved in polyamine homeostasis in animal
cells. The mouse spermine oxidase gene (mSMO) codes for splice variants, including the …

Human spermine oxidase (hSMOX) plays a central role in polyamine catabolism. Due to its
association with several pathological processes, including inflammation and cancer, hSMOX …

Spermine is a constituent of most eucaryotic cells, however, it is not of vital importance for
the vertebrate organism, as is demonstrated by the existence of transgenic (Gy) mice that …

Spermine oxidase (SMO) is a recently described flavoenzyme belonging to the class of
polyamine oxidases (PAOs) and participating in the polyamine metabolism in animal cells …

Spermine oxidase (SMO) and acetylpolyamine oxidase (APAO) are FAD-dependent
enzymes that are involved in the highly regulated pathways of polyamine biosynthesis and …
