    Author: Zeiner R, Van Pée KH, Lingens F.
    Journal: J Gen Microbiol; 1988 Dec; 134(12):3141-9. PubMed ID: 3151989.
    Abstract:
    The presence of multiple bromoperoxidases in extracts of Streptomyces griseus Tü 6 was detected. The enzyme pattern varied with the age of the culture. A haem-type bromoperoxidase (BPO 2) was always present. Additionally three nonhaem-type bromoperoxidases (BPO 1a, 1b and 3) were detected and purified to homogeneity. The Mr of non-denatured BPO 1a was 70,000 +/- 10,000 and those of BPO 1b and 3 were 90,000 +/- 5000. BPO 1a and 1b were dimers with subunit Mr values of 34,000 and 43,000, respectively. BPO 3 was a trimer with a subunit Mr of 31,000. The enzymes differed in their isoelectric points, heat stability, and Km values. In immunodiffusion experiments BPO 1a and 3 showed partial identity with the nonhaem-type bromoperoxidase from Streptomyces aureofaciens. The nonhaem-type BPO 1a, 1b and 3 had neither peroxidase nor catalase activity.
