Abstract
Glycated proteins are generated by binding of glucose to the proteins in blood stream through a nonenzymatic reaction. Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) is a glycated protein with glucose at the N-terminal of β-chain. HbA1c is extensively used as an indicator for assessing the blood glucose concentration in diabetes patients. There are different conventional clinical methods for the detection of HbA1c. However, enzymatic detection method has newly obtained great attention for its high precision and cost-effectiveness. Today, fructosyl peptide oxidase (FPOX) plays a key role in the enzymatic measurement of HbA1c, and different companies have marketed HbA1c assay systems based on FPOX. Recent investigations show that FPOX could be used in assaying HbA1 without requiring HbA1c primary digestion. It could also be applied as a biosensor for HbA1c detection. In this review, we have discussed the recent improvements of FPOX properties, different methods of FPOX purification, solubility, and immobilization, and also the use of FPOX in HbA1c biosensors.

Abstract
Fructosamine has long been considered as a key intermediate of the Maillard reaction, which to a large extent is responsible for specific aroma, taste, and color formation in thermally processed or dehydrated foods. Since the 1980s, however, as a product of the Amadori rearrangement reaction between glucose and biologically significant amines such as proteins, fructosamine has experienced a boom in biomedical research, mainly due to its relevance to pathologies in diabetes and aging. In this chapter, we assess the scope of the knowledge on and applications of fructosamine-related molecules in chemistry, food, and health sciences, as reflected mostly in publications within the past decade. Methods of fructosamine synthesis and analysis, its chemical, and biological properties, and degradation reactions, together with fructosamine-modifying and -recognizing proteins are surveyed.

Abstract
Carbohydrates are widely abundant molecules present in a variety of forms. For their biosynthesis and modification, nature has evolved a plethora of carbohydrate-acting enzymes. Many of these enzymes are of particular interest for biotechnological applications, where they can be used as biocatalysts or biosensors. Among the enzymes catalysing conversions of carbohydrates are the carbohydrate oxidases. These oxidative enzymes belong to different structural families and use different cofactors to perform the oxidation reaction of CH-OH bonds in carbohydrates. The variety of carbohydrate oxidases available in nature reflects their specificity towards different sugars and selectivity of the oxidation site. Thanks to their properties, carbohydrate oxidases have received a lot of attention in basic and applied research, such that nowadays their role in biotechnological processes is of paramount importance. In this review we provide an overview of the available knowledge concerning the known carbohydrate oxidases. The oxidases are first classified according to their structural features. After a description on their mechanism of action, substrate acceptance and characterisation, we report on the engineering of the different carbohydrate oxidases to enhance their employment in biocatalysis and biotechnology. In the last part of the review we highlight some practical applications for which such enzymes have been exploited.

Abstract
The FAOD/FPOD family of proteins has the potential to be useful for the longterm detection of blood glucose levels in diabetes patients. A bottleneck for this application is to find or engineer a FAOD/FPOD family enzyme that is specifically active towards α-fructosyl peptides but is inactive towards other types of glycated peptides. Here, the crystal structure of fructosyl peptide oxidase from Eupenicillium terrenum (EtFPOX) is reported at 1.9 Å resolution. In contrast to the previously reported structure of amadoriase II, EtFPOX has an open substrate entrance to accommodate the large peptide substrate. The functions of residues critical for substrate selection are discussed based on structure comparison and sequence alignment. This study reveals the first structural details of group I FPODs that prefer α-fructosyl substrates and could provide significant useful information for uncovering the mechanism of substrate specificity of FAOD/FPODs and guidance towards future enzyme engineering for diagnostic purposes.

The ubiquitous conserved glycopeptidase Gcp prevents accumulation of toxic glycated proteins. mBio 2010; 1.

Abstract
Amadori-modified proteins (AMPs) are the products of nonenzymatic glycation formed by reaction of reducing sugars with primary amine-containing amino acids and can develop into advanced glycated end products (AGEs), highly stable toxic compounds. AGEs are known to participate in many age-related human diseases, including cardiovascular, neurological, and liver diseases. The metabolism of these glycated proteins is not yet understood, and the mechanisms that reduce their accumulation are not known so far. Here, we show for Escherichia coli that a conserved glycopeptidase (Gcp, also called Kae1), which is encoded by nearly every sequenced genome in the three domains of life, prevents the accumulation of Amadori products and AGEs. Using mutants, we show that Gcp depletion results in accumulation of AMPs and eventually leads to the accumulation of AGEs. We demonstrate that Gcp binds to glycated proteins, including pyruvate dehydrogenase, previously shown to be a glycation-prone enzyme. Our experiments also show that the severe phenotype of Gcp depletion can be relieved under conditions of low intracellular glycation. As glycated proteins are ubiquitous, the involvement of Gcp in the metabolism of AMPs and AGEs is likely to have been conserved in evolution, suggesting a universal involvement of Gcp in cellular aging and explaining the essentiality of Gcp in many organisms. Glycated proteins (Amadori-modified proteins [AMPs] and advanced glycated end products [AGEs]) are known to participate in many age-related diseases. Their existence in fast-growing organisms was considered unlikely, as their formation was assumed to be slow. Yet, recent evidence demonstrated their existence in bacteria, and our data suggest a bacterial mechanism that reduced their accumulation. We identify in Escherichia coli a protein, Gcp, which carries out this function. Gcp is conserved in all domains of life and is essential in many organisms. Although it was annotated as a chaperon protease, there were no experimental data to support this function. Our findings are compatible with the annotation and will open up studies of the bacterial metabolism of glycated proteins. Furthermore, the data from the bacterial systems may also be instrumental in understanding the metabolism of glycated proteins, including their toxicity in human health and disease.

Abstract
Glycated proteins, particularly glycated hemoglobin A1c, are important markers for assessing the effectiveness of diabetes treatment. Convenient and reproducible assay systems based on the enzyme fructosyl amino acid oxidase (FAOD) have become attractive alternatives to conventional detection methods. We review the available FAOD-based assays for measurement of glycated proteins as well as the recent advances and future direction of FAOD research. Future research is expected to lead to the next generation of convenient, simple, and economical sensors for glycated protein, ideally suited for point-of-care treatment and self-monitoring applications.

Abstract
We found 11 genes (FAO1-11) encoding putative oxidoreductases in the Aspergillus oryzae genome, which are similar to fungal fructosyl-amino acid oxidases. The cDNAs corresponding to the genes were cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. rFao2 had fructosyl-amino acid oxidase activity, whereas rFao1 did not show any enzyme activity, even though the deduced amino acid sequence of Fao1 is identical to that of one of the fructosyl-amino acid oxidase isozymes from Aspergillus oryzae. rFao7 and rFao8 showed oxidase activity toward sarcosine, L-pipecolate, and L-proline. rFao10 was active toward only sarcosine, of the substrates tested. The functions of the other proteins were also predicted from a phylogenetic analysis.

Abstract
A flow-injection analytical (FIA) system, comprised of an electrochemical detector with a fructosyl-peptide oxidase (FPOX-CET) reactor and a flow-type spectrophotometer, was proposed for the simultaneous measurement of glycohemoglobin and total hemoglobin in blood cell. The blood cell samples were hemolyzed with a surfactant and then treated with protease. In the first stage of operation, total hemoglobin in digested sample was determined spectrophotometrically. In the second stage, fructosyl valyl histidine (FVH) released from glycohemoglobin by the selective proteolysis was determined specifically using the electrochemical detector with the FPOX-CET reactor. The FIA system could be automatically processed at an analytical speed of 40 samples per hour. The proposed assay method could determine selectively only the glycated N-terminal residue of beta-chain in glycohemoglobin and total hemoglobin in blood cell. The enzymatic hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) value calculated by the concentration ratio of the FVH to total hemoglobin, was closely correlated with the HbA1c values certified by the Japan Diabetic Society (JDS) and the International Federation of Clinical Chemistry (IFCC).

Abstract
The metabolism of the glycation product fructose-epsilon-lysine in Escherichia coli involves its ATP-dependent phosphorylation by a specific kinase (FrlD), followed by the conversion of fructoselysine 6-phosphate into glucose 6-phosphate and lysine by fructoselysine-6-phosphate deglycase (FrlB), which is distantly related to the isomerase domain of glucosamine-6-phosphate synthase. As shown in the present work, several bacterial operons comprise: (1) a homologue of fructoselysine-6-phosphate deglycase; (2) a second homologue of the isomerase domain of glucosamine-6-phosphate synthase, more closely related to it; and (3) components of a novel phosphotransferase system, but no FrlD homologue. The FrlB homologue (GfrF) and the closer glucosamine-6-phosphate synthase homologue (GfrE) encoded by an Enterococcus faecium operon were expressed in E. coli and purified. Similar to FrlB, GfrF catalysed the reversible conversion of fructoselysine 6-phosphate into glucose 6-phosphate and lysine. When incubated with fructose 6-phosphate and elevated concentrations of lysine, GfrE catalysed the formation of a compound identified as 2-epsilon-lysino-2-deoxy-6-phospho-glucose (glucoselysine 6-phosphate) by NMR. GfrE also catalysed the reciprocal conversion, i.e. the formation of fructose 6-phosphate (but not glucose 6-phosphate) from glucoselysine 6-phosphate. The equilibrium constant of this reaction (0.8 M) suggests that the enzyme serves to degrade glucoselysine 6-phosphate. In conclusion, GfrF and GfrE serve to metabolize glycation products formed from lysine and glucose (fructoselysine) or fructose (glucoselysine), via their 6-phospho derivatives. The latter are presumably formed by the putative phosphotransferase system encoded by gfrA-gfrD. The designation gfr (glycation and fructation product degradation) is proposed for this operon. This is the first description of an enzyme participating in the metabolism of fructation products.

Abstract
A flow-injection system with an enzyme reactor was proposed for the measurement of fructosyl amino acids and fructosyl peptides in protease-digested blood samples. A fructosyl-amino acid oxidase (FAOX-TE) and two fructosyl-peptide oxidases (FPOX-CE and FPOX-CET) were covalently immobilized onto an inert support. They were used as the enzyme reactor in a FIA system with a hydrogen peroxide electrode. In particular, the FPOX-CET reactor possessed high selectivity for the detection of fructosyl valine (FV) and fructosyl valyl histidine (FVH) and an excellent operational stability. The proposed FIA system with the FPOX-CET reactor responded linearly to the concentration of FV over the dynamic range of 7.8 x 10(-6) to 5.8 x 10(-4) M. The present method could be successfully applied to the assay of FV and FVH in the protease-digested blood samples.

Abstract
Fructosyl amino acid oxidase (FAOD) is the enzyme catalyzing the oxidative deglycation of Amadori compounds, such as fructosyl amino acids, yielding the corresponding amino acids, glucosone, and H(2)O(2). In a previous report, we determined the primary structures of cDNAs coding for FAODs from two fungal strains Aspergillus terreus AP1 and Penicillium janthinellum and we found that both fungal FAODs included the putative peroxisome targeting signal 1 (PTS1) at the carboxyl terminal (Yoshida, N. et al., Eur. J. Biochem., 242, 499-505, 1996). In this study, we determined the intracellular localization of FAODs in these two fungi. Subcellular fractionation experiments and immuno-electronmicroscopic observations, together with the previous findings indicated that the FAODs were localized in peroxisomes of A. terreus AP1 and P. janthinellum. These FAODs were also found to belong to a new member of "peroxisomal sarcosine oxidase family protein" in eucaryotic cells.

Abstract
Aspergillus oryzae has two fructosyl-amino acid oxidase (FAOD) isozymes (AoFao1 and AoFao2), which are different in the substrate specificities. Northern blot analysis showed both FAO genes were induced by autoclave-browned medium containing l-lysine or l-valine. Studies with a mutant, that had a disrupted AoFAO2 gene, revealed that the expression of AoFAO1 by fructosyl l-valine depended on the expression of AoFAO2. Both genes were also induced by one of the FAOD-reaction products, glucosone. In contrast, other alpha-dicarbonyl compounds, which display a similar structure to that of glucosone were not able to induce the genes expression. These results imply that glucosone may contribute to the expression of FAO genes.

Abstract
Fructosyl peptide oxidase is a flavoenzyme that catalyzes the oxidative deglycation of N-(1-deoxyfructosyl)-Val-His, a model compound of hemoglobin (Hb)A(1C). To develop an enzymatic method for the measurement of HbA(1C), we screened for a proper protease using N-(1-deoxyfructosyl)-hexapeptide as a substrate. Several proteases, including Neutral protease from Bacillus polymyxa, were found to release N-(1-deoxyfructosyl)-Val-His efficiently, however no protease was found to release N-(1-deoxyfructosyl)-Val. Neutral protease also digested HbA(1C) to release N-(1-deoxyfructosyl)-Val-His, and then the fructosyl peptide was detected using fructosyl peptide oxidase. The linear relationship was observed between the concentration of HbA(1C) and the absorbancy of fructosyl peptide oxidase reaction, hence this new method is a practical means for measuring HbA(1C.).

Abstract
Fructosyl-amino acid oxidase (FAOD)-reactive fraction (FRY) was found in commercial yeast extract. FRY showed very hydrophilic property and was adsorbed to phenylboronate silica gel, indicating that it contained the Amadori compound. TLC and amino acid analyses revealed that glucosone, lysine, and arginine were produced from FRY after incubation with FAOD. TOF-MS analysis confirmed that FRY is a mixture of fructosyl lysine and fructosyl arginine. These compounds were also detected in mycelial extract of an FAOD-producer, Aspergillus terreus GP1, grown on the minimum medium, suggesting that a glycation reaction occurs in fungal cells and that FAOD acts toward the resultant Amadori compounds.

Abstract
Enzymatic reversal of the Maillard reaction is a growing area of research. Fructosyl amine oxidase enzymes (EC 1.5.3) have attracted recent attention through demonstration of their ability to deglycate Amadori products, low molecular weight intermediates formed during the early stage of the Maillard reaction. Although stopped assays have been described, a bottleneck in current studies is the lack of continuous kinetic assays. Here, we describe the development of a continuous, coupled enzyme assay and its successful application to determining optimal storage conditions and the steady-state kinetic parameters of an enzyme from this group, amadoriase I. A K(m)(app) of 11 microM and a K(cat)(app) of 3.5s(-1) were determined using this assay using fructosyl propylamine as a substrate, which differ from previous reports. This method was also used to test the activity of two site-directed mutants of amadoriase I, H357N and S370A, which were found to be catalytically inactive.

Abstract
Three active fractions of fructosyl-amino acid oxidase (FAOD-Ao1, -Ao2a, and -Ao2b) were isolated from Aspergillus oryzae strain RIB40. N-terminal and internal amino acid sequences of FAOD-Ao2a corresponded to those of FAOD-Ao2b, suggesting that these two isozymes were derived from the same protein. FAOD-Ao1 and -Ao2 were different in substrate specificity and subunit assembly; FAOD-Ao2 was active toward N(epsilon)-fructosyl N(alpha)-Z-lysine and fructosyl valine (Fru-Val), whereas FAOD-Ao1 was not active toward Fru-Val. The genes encoding the FAOD isozymes (i.e., FAOAo1 and FAOAo2) were cloned by PCR with an FAOD-specific primer set. The deduced amino acid sequences revealed that FAOD-Ao1 was 50% identical to FAOD-Ao2, and each isozyme had a peroxisome-targeting signal-1, indicating their localization in peroxisomes. The genes was expressed in Escherichia coli and rFaoAo2 showed the same characteristics as FAOD-Ao2, whereas rFaoAo1 was not active. FAOAo2 disruptant was obtained by using ptrA as a selective marker. Wild-type strain grew on the medium containing Fru-Val as the sole carbon and nitrogen sources, but strain Delta faoAo2 did not grow. Addition of glucose or (NH(4))(2)SO(4) to the Fru-Val medium did not affect the assimilation of Fru-Val by wild-type, indicating glucose and ammonium repressions did not occur in the expression of the FAOAo2 gene. Furthermore, conidia of the wild-type strain did not germinate on the medium containing Fru-Val and NaNO(2) as the sole carbon and nitrogen sources, respectively, suggesting that Fru-Val may also repress gene expression of nitrite reductase. These results indicated that FAOD is needed for utilization of fructosyl-amino acids as nitrogen sources in A. oryzae.

Abstract
Two putative fructosyl-amino acid oxidase genes, FAP1 and FAP2, found in the Schizosaccharomyces pombe genome were cloned and expressed. Both of the gene products (Fap1 and Fap2) were flavoproteins and have no activity for fructosyl-amino acids. It was suggested that Fap1 and Fap2 are an L-pipecolic acid oxidase and L-saccharopine oxidase, respectively.

Abstract
Reducing sugars such as glucose react with amino groups in proteins to form the Amadori product, which can undergo a wide range of chemical modifications and form cross-links in tissue proteins. There is growing evidence to suggest that accumulation of glycation products is associated with aging and disease progression, as in diabetes. Thus, the design and discovery of inhibitors for the glycation cascade would potentially offer a promising therapeutic approach for the prevention of glycation related diseases, especially diabetes. Two types of enzymes, fructosyl lysine oxidase and fructose lysine 3-phosphokinase, catalyze the deglycation reaction and generate free amine groups. This paper reviews the biochemical properties of these "amadoriase" enzymes, such as structural-function relationship, kinetic mechanism, and substrate specificity, as well as their biological roles and applications in the protein deglycation.

Abstract
Fructosyl peptide oxidases, enzymes that are active against a model compound of glycated hemoglobin, N(alpha)-fructosyl valyl-histidine, were characterized. To identify the primary structure of fructosyl peptide oxidases, we have prepared cDNA libraries from Eupenicillium terrenum ATCC18547 and Coniochaeta sp. NISL9330. The coding regions, both fungal fructosyl peptide oxidases consisting of 1314-bp, were obtained with degenerated primers based on the amino acid sequences and specific primers by 3(') and 5(') RACE (rapid amplification of cDNA ends). By their sequence similarities and substrate specificities, fructosyl peptide oxidases and their homologs could be categorized into two groups: (A) enzymes that preferably oxidize alpha-glycated molecules and (B) enzymes that preferably oxidize epsilon-glycated molecules. We showed that recombinant fructosyl peptide oxidases could be used to detect protease-treated fructosyl-hexapeptide, a glycated peptide that is released from HbA(1C) by endoproteinase Glu-C, suggesting these enzymes could be useful for the enzymatic measurement of HbA(1C).

Abstract
We succeeded in isolating several thermostable mutant fructosyl-amino acid oxidase (FAOX; EC 1.5.3) without reduction of productivity by directed evolution that combined an in vivo mutagenesis and membrane assay screening system. Five amino acid substitutions (T60A, A188G, M244L, N257S, and L261M) occurred in the most thermostable mutant obtained by a fourth round of directed evolution. This altered enzyme, FAOX-TE, was stable at 45 degrees C, whereas the wild-type enzyme was not stable above 37 degrees C. The K(m) values of FAOX-TE for D-fructosyl-L-valine and D-fructosyl-glycine were 1.50 and 0.58 mM, respectively, in contrast with corresponding values of 1.61 and 0.74 mM for the wild-type enzyme. This altered FAOX-TE will be useful in the diagnosis of diabetes.

Abstract
Amadoriase is an enzyme catalyzing the oxidative deglycation of Amadori products to yield corresponding amino acids, glucosone, and H2O2. We previously reported the purification and characterization of two amadoriase isozymes from Aspergillus sp. that degrade both glycated low molecular weight amines and amino acids (Takahashi, M., Pischetsrieder, M., and Monnier, V. M. (1997) J. Biol. Chem. 272, 3437-3443). To identify the primary structure of the enzymes, we have prepared a cDNA library from Aspergillus fumigatus induced with fructosyl propylamine and isolated a clone using polyclonal anti-amadoriase II antibody. The primary structure of the enzyme deduced from the nucleotide sequence comprises 438 amino acid residues with a predicted molecular mass of 48,798 Da. The deduced primary structure exhibits the presence of an ADP-binding motif near the NH2 terminus. The identity of the amadoriase II cDNA was further confirmed by expression in Escherichia coli cells with an inducible expression system. Northern blotting analysis revealed that amadoriase II was induced by fructosyl propylamine in a dose-dependent manner.

Abstract
Four "amadoriase" enzyme fractions, which oxidatively degrade glycated low molecular weight amines and amino acids under formation of hydrogen peroxide and glucosone, were isolated from an Aspergillus sp. soil strain selected on fructosyl adamantanamine as sole carbon source. The enzymes were purified to homogeneity using a combination of ion exchange, hydroxyapatite, gel filtration, and Mono Q column chromatography. Molecular masses of amadoriase enzymes Ia, Ib, and Ic were 51 kDa, and 49 kDa for amadoriase II. Apparent kinetic constants for Nepsilon-fructosyl Nalpha-t-butoxycarbonyl lysine and fructosyl adamantanamine were almost identical for enzymes Ia, Ib, and Ic, but corresponding values for enzyme II were significantly different. FAD was identified in all enzymes based on its typical absorption spectrum. N-terminal sequence was identical for enzymes Ia and Ib (Ala-Pro-Ser-Ile-Leu-Ser-Thr-Glu-Ser-Ser-Ile-Ile-Val-Ile-Gly-Ala-Gly- Thr-Trp-Gly-) and Ic except that the first 5 amino acids were truncated. The sequence of enzyme II was different (Ala-Val-Thr-Lys-Ser-Ser-Ser-Leu-Leu-Ile-Val-Gly-Ala-Gly-Thr-Trp-Gly- Thr-Ser-Thr-). All enzymes had the FAD cofactor-binding consensus sequence Gly-X-Gly-X-X-Gly within the N-terminal sequence. In summary, these data show the presence of two distinct amadoriase enzymes in the Aspergillus sp. soil strain selected on fructosyl adamantanamine and induced by fructosyl propylamine. In contrast to previous described enzymes, these novel amadoriase enzymes can deglycate both glycated amines and amino acids.

Abstract
Searching for novel approaches for uncoupling glycation from hyperglycemia as a cause of diabetic complications, a Pseudomonas sp. soil strain containing a membrane-bound enzyme that deglycates amino acids under release of free fructosamine was isolated (Gerhardinger, C., Marion, S. M., Rovner, A., Glomb, M., and Monnier, V. M. (1995) J. Biol. Chem. 270, 218-224). This enzymatic activity was found to be very sensitive to inactivation by most detergents. From the plasma membrane ( approximately 3 mg/ml protein concentration), the enzyme could be solubilized in active form using 10 mM 3-[(3-chlolamidopropyl) dimethylammonio]-2-hydroxy-1-propanesulfonate aided by 2 M NaCl and 10% glycerol (27% optimal solubilization yield). The supernatant from a 55% saturation (NH4)2SO4 cut was fractionated onto a phenyl-Superose HR 5/5 column and enzymatic activity was eluted with a inverse gradient of (NH4)2SO4. Following removal of (NH4)2SO4 with PD-10 columns and fractionation with a Mono Q HR 5/5 column, a sharp peak of enzyme activity was eluted. Analysis on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed a major band at 106 kDa and, on isoelectrofocusing gel, a pI of 5.1. The activity was completely inhibited by CN- and N3-, suggestive of copper as a likely cofactor. Identification of the protein was confirmed by affinity labeling with 14CN- and isoelectrofocusing. The "amadoriase" activity was also inhibited by Hg2+, Ag2+, Cu2+, and Zn2+ and had Km and Vmax values of 0.14 mM and 0.48 unit/ml (16 units/mg of protein), respectively, for epsilon-(1-deoxyfructosyl) aminocaproate. Significant activity was noted toward many glycated amino acids (highest with epsilon-fructosyl lysine) but not with glycated proteins. The sequence of the first 16 NH2-terminal amino acids and a search in various data bases revealed that this amadoriase enzyme is a novel protein. Based on its properties, this deglycating enzyme, which degrades Amadori products oxidatively into free fructosamine, is classified as fructosyl aminocaproate:oxygen oxidoreductase (EC 1.5.3).

Abstract
Fructosyl amino acid oxidase (FAOD), which is active toward model compounds of the glycated proteins in blood, N epsilon-fructosyl N sigma-Z-lysine and N-fructosyl valine, was purified to homogeneity from Aspergillus terreus GP1. Though the enzyme did not use glycated proteins directly as its substrate, it used glycated human serum albumin (HSA) when HSA was treated with a protease. Linear relationships between both the concentration and the increase in absorbance and the glycation rate of glycated HSA and the increase in absorbance were observed. cDNAs coding for FAODs were cloned from cDNA libraries of A. terreus GP1 and Penicillium janthinellum AKU 3413. The coding region for both fungal FAODs consisted of 1314 bp encoding 437 amino acids. The sequence of a dinucleotide-binding motif, GXGXXG, was in the deduced N-terminal region and a similar sequence to that the active site of bacterial sarcosine oxidases was found near the C-terminal region of FAOD. The of C-terminal tripeptides SKL and AKL of FAODs from A. terreus and P. janthinellum, respectively, represent typical peroxisomal-targeting signals. Finally, FAOD protein was produced in Escherichia coli transformants in an active form, and at the same level as in the original fungi.

Abstract
Fructosyl amino acid oxidase, and enzyme that can be used for the determination of glycated proteins in blood samples from diabetic patients, was used to screen cultures in our microorganism culture collection. Fructosyl amino acid oxidase was found only in the strains of four genera of fungi, Aspergillus, Fusarium, Gibberella, and Penicillium and exhibited different substrate specificities against fructosyl valine and N epsilon-fructosyl N alpha-Z-lysine. A fructosyl valine-specific enzyme from Penicillium janthinellum AKU3413 was monomeric (M(r), 49,000), was most active at 35 degrees C and pH 8.0, and had a covalently bound flavin adenine dinucleotide as a prosthetic group.
