This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-OH group of donor with oxygen as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is pyranose:oxygen 2-oxidoreductase. Other names in common use include glucose 2-oxidase, and pyranose-2-oxidase. This enzyme participates in pentose phosphate pathway. It employs one cofactor, FAD.
Recently, pyranose oxidase has been gaining on popularity within biosensors.[1] Unlike glucose oxidase, it can produce higher power output, given that it is not glycosylated, has more favorable value of Michaelis-Menten constants, and can catalytically convert both anomers of glucose. It reacts with a wider range of substrates. Pyranose oxidase does not cause an unwanted pH shift. It is also possible to easily express and produce it in high yields using E. coli.[1]

Glyceraldehyde (glyceral) is a triose monosaccharide with chemical formula C3H6O3. It is the simplest of all common aldoses. It is a sweet, colorless, crystalline solid that is an intermediate compound in carbohydrate metabolism. The word comes from combining glycerol and aldehyde, as glyceraldehyde is glycerol with one alcohol group oxidized to an aldehyde.
