Biochem/physiol Actions

Chloroperoxidase (CPO) is secreted from fungus and exhibits a broad spectrum of chemical reactivities. It is a peroxide-dependent chlorinating enzyme and it also catalyzes peroxidase, catalase and cytochrome P450-type reactions of dehydrogenation, hydrogenperoxide (H2O2) decomposition and oxygen insertion, respectively. The enzyme has magnetic and spectroscopic properties similar to that of cyctochrome P-450. CPO from the fungus Caldariomyces fumago has the capacity to chlorinate aromatic hydrocarbons, including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). PAHs are considered to be a potential health risk because of their possible carcinogenic and mutagenic activities and are widely dispersed in the environment.

General description

Chloroperoxidase is a heme containing glycoprotein that is secreted from fungus. Chloroperoxidase (CPO) is a extracellular heme glycoenzyme containing ferriprotoporphyrin IX as the prosthetic group.
