pubmed:abstractText |
Eosinophil peroxidase (donor:hydrogen peroxide oxidoreductase, EC 1.11.1.7) was isolated from outdated human white blood cells. The purified enzyme has a molecular weight of 71000 +/- 1000. The enzyme is composed of two subunits, of Mr 58000 and 14000, in a 1:1 stoichiometry. Amino-acid analyses showed that eosinophil peroxidase has a high content of the amino acids arginine, leucine and aspartic acid. The millimolar absorbance coefficient of the Soret band at 412 nm of eosinophil peroxidase was determined. Three independent methods yield a value for epsilon 412nm of 110 +/- 4 mm-1 X cm-1. Purified eosinophil peroxidase showed a homogeneous high-spin EPR signal with rhombic symmetry (gx = 6.50; gy = 5.40; gz = 1.982) for the haem group. EPR spectroscopy of low-spin cyanide and azide derivatives of eosinophil peroxidase, lactoperoxidase, myeloperoxidase and catalase revealed that the haem-ligand structure of eosinophil peroxidase is closely related to lactoperoxidase, whereas that of myeloperoxidase shows great resemblance to catalase.
