What kind of specificity does glucose oxidase exhibit?

What kind of specificity does glucose oxidase exhibit? Correct Answer Absolute specificity

Glucose oxidase oxidizes only one substrate i.e., glucose. When a particular enzyme is exhibiting specificity to only one substrate, it's referred to as absolute specificity. Stereospecificity is exhibited by stereoisomers whereas group specificity means enzyme specificity to a group of substrates. Enzymes have the capacity of discriminating between parts of the same molecule. This kind of specificity is called regiospecificity.
