Question

1. Describe the glucose oxidase's general enzymatic class (oxidoreductase, transferase, isomerase, hydrolase, ligase, or lyase), which types of cells express this enzyme, and what its role is within those cells and/or their surrounding tissues.

2. Describe glucose oxidase's substrate, the substrate’s biological relevance, and identify the main interaction that governs how the substrate binds (e.g. specific salt bridges, negative/positive patches, hydrophobic pockets) 

3. Describe two different ways in which glucose oxidase is regulated. These mechanisms of regulation do not need to
be allosteric in nature, but they often are—for any allosteric regulatory mechanisms, indicate whether they are
positive/negative, homotropic/heterotropic, and whether they constitute an example of feedback inhibition
