A peroxidase has been purified to homogeneity from Astragalus maritimus seeds using ammonium sulfate precipitation and chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and hydroxylapatite. The purification obtained was 255 fold. The enzyme preparations were homogenous by the criteria of SDS-PAGE and analytical gel electrofocusing. The protein contained 0.11% of iron that corresponds to a minimum molecular size of 50,700. Determinations of molecular size by SDS-PAGE gave values of 48,000 +/- 1,000 while the one obtained by Sephadex gel filtration was 49,000. The pH optimum of the enzyme was 6.0. The activation energy was estimated to be 6 Kcal/mol. The prosthetic group was shown to be ferriprotoporphyrin IX. The presence of 13% neutral sugars was found. The spectrophotometric analysis showed the presence, in the visible region, of absorption maxima at 403, 490 and 633 nm. The Rz value (A403/A275) was 2.7.
