Peroxidase

Description:
Peroxidase refers to a group of enzymes that catalyze the oxidation of various substrates using hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as the electron acceptor. The CAS number 9003-99-0 specifically corresponds to a type of peroxidase derived from plant sources, often involved in various biological processes, including the detoxification of hydrogen peroxide and the metabolism of reactive oxygen species. These enzymes are characterized by their heme-containing active sites, which facilitate the transfer of electrons. Peroxidases exhibit a broad substrate specificity, acting on phenolic compounds, aromatic amines, and other organic substrates, making them valuable in various industrial applications, including food processing, textile manufacturing, and bioremediation. They are typically found in a range of organisms, including plants, fungi, and some bacteria, and play crucial roles in plant defense mechanisms and lignin biosynthesis. The activity of peroxidases can be influenced by factors such as pH, temperature, and the presence of inhibitors or activators, making them versatile tools in both research and industrial settings.
