NCIt synonyms : Oxidase, Urate (Synthetic Sus scrofa variant pigks-DN subunit), homotetramer, amide
with alpha-carboxy-omega-methoxypoly(oxy-1,2-ethanediyl); Methoxypolyethylene Glycol Uricase; Polyethylene Glycol-uricase; Des-(1-6)-(7-threonine,46-threonine,291-lysine,301-serine)uricase (EC 1.7.3.3, urate
oxidase) Sus scrofa (pig) tetramer, Non Acetylated, Carbamates with alpha-carboxy-omega-methoxypoly(oxyethylene);
NCIt definition : A recombinant modified mammalian urate oxidase (uricase) conjugated to monomethoxypolyethylene
glycol (mPEG), that can be used to lower serum uric acid. Upon intravenous infusion,
pegloticase catalyzes the oxidation of uric acid to allantoin, thereby lowering serum
uric acid. Allantoin is an inert and water-soluble purine metabolite; it is readily
eliminated, primarily by renal excretion.;
