General description
Chloroperoxidase (CPO) is a major heme-containing, synthetic and versatile enzyme, obtained from Caldariomyces fumago.
Application
A useful alternative to lactoperoxidase for 131I ion labeling studies, for bromination of proteins, and for 36Cl labeling of macromolecules in long-term isolation procedures.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Chloroperoxidase (CPO) helps in the catalysis of oxidation reactions with the help of hydrogen peroxide. It displays peroxidase, catalase and cytochrome P450-like functions. CPO also plays a role in catalyzing halogenation reactions.
Unit Definition
1 U corresponds to the amount of enzyme which converts 1 μmol of monochlorodimedone to dichlorodimedone per minute at pH 2.75 and 25 °C in the presence of KCl and H2O2.
Physical form
Supplied as a suspension in 0.1 M sodium phosphate pH 4.0.
Other Notes
Oxidation of aminopyrine; Chloroperoxidase, a peroxidase with potential; Chloroperoxidase-catalyzed asymmetric transformations.

Although in the absence of halide ion chloroperoxidase did not catalyze the ethylhydroperoxide (EHP)-supported oxidation of aminopyrine, in the presence of Br- or Cl-, chloroperoxidase did catalyze the oxidation of aminopyrine, generating the aminopyrine cation radical (AP+). The initial rate

Azide is a well-known inhibitor of heme-enzymes. Herein, we report the counter-intuitive observation that at some concentration regimes, incorporation of azide in the reaction medium enhances chloroperoxidase (CPO, a heme-enzyme) mediated one-electron abstractions from several substrates. A diffusible azidyl radical
