EC 1.11.1.7

Names

Accepted name:
peroxidase
Other names:
Japanese radish peroxidase
extensin peroxidase
guaiacol peroxidase
heme peroxidase
horseradish peroxidase (HRP)
lactoperoxidase
oxyperoxidase
protoheme peroxidase
pyrocatechol peroxidase
scopoletin peroxidase
plant peroxidase
soybean peroxidase (SBP)
Coprinus cinereus peroxidase
Arthromyces ramosus peroxidase
Systematic name:
phenolic donor:hydrogen-peroxide oxidoreductase

Reaction

Cofactor

Comments:

Heme proteins with histidine as proximal ligand. The iron in the resting enzyme is Fe(III). They also peroxidize non-phenolic substrates such as 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) and 2,2'-azinobis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS). Certain peroxidases (e.g. lactoperoxidase, SBP) oxidize bromide, iodide and thiocyanate.
