Posttranslational modification and heme cavity architecture of human eosinophil peroxidase—insights from first crystal structure and biochemical characterization

Eosinophil peroxidase (EPO) is the most abundant granule protein exocytosed by eosinophils, specialized human phagocytes. Released EPO catalyzes the formation of reactive oxidants from bromide, thiocyanate, and nitrite that kill tissue-invading parasites. However, EPO also plays a deleterious role i...
