HORSERADISH PEROXIDASE C1A
|
Horseadish (Armoracia rusticana) is a plant that belongs to the Brassicaceae family. The roots of this plant are rich in peroxidases, being the HRP C isozymes the most common ones. [1] However, most of the HRP research has focused on one isozyme: 1H58 [2].
Structural highlights
HRP C1A is composed by 308 residues and the residue at is Ile according to the GenBank entry M37156.1 but Tyr according to the GenBank entry HE963800.1 [2].
The molecule has a predominantly α-helical , with the exception of one short β-sheet region, and it is separated into a distal and a proximal region, each one with a .
In the center of HRP C1A there is a , which is linked to the molecule by a coordinate bond of the heme iron with a conserved residue [1].
There are sites for N glycosylation in the loop regions, at residues[1]. All these glycosylated Asn residues are located on the surface of C1A[2].
Other residues play essencial roles in the the molecule, as the and , which are related to the formation and stabilization of (1HCH), that is the active form of this enzyme.
