Function

Function:
Part of the host defense system of polymorphonuclear leukocytes. It is responsible for microbicidal activity against a wide range of organisms. In the stimulated PMN, MPO catalyzes the production of hypohalous acids, primarily hypochlorous acid in physiologic situations, and other toxic intermediates that greatly enhance PMN microbicidal activity.
Catalytic Activity:
Cl(-) + H(2)O(2) + H(+) = HClO + H(2)O.; Cl(-) + H(2)O(2) = HOCl + 2 H(2)O.
Cofactor:
COFACTOR: Name=Ca(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29108; ; Note=Binds 1 Ca(2+) ion per monomer.;; COFACTOR: Name=heme b; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:60344; ; Note=Binds 1 heme b (iron(II)-protoporphyrin IX) group covalently per monomer.;
Active Site:
ACT_SITE 261 261 Proton acceptor.
