hydrogen peroxidase
1Peroxidase — Peroxidases (EC number [http://www.chem.qmul.ac.uk/iubmb/enzyme/EC1/11/1/ 1.11.1.x] ) are a large family of enzymes. A majority of peroxidase protein sequences can be found in the PeroxiBase database. Peroxidases typically catalyze a reaction of… …
2peroxidase — A haem enzyme that catalyses reduction of hydrogen peroxide by a substrate that loses two hydrogen atoms. Within cells, may be localized in peroxisomes. Coloured reaction products allow detection of the enzyme with high sensitivity, so peroxidase …
