Biochemical and physiological insights into bacterial cytochrome c peroxidases from Escherichia coli and Neisseria gonorrhoeae

Bacteria display an array of enzymes to detoxify reactive oxygen species that cause cell damage and death, such as the bacterial cytochrome c peroxidase (BCCP) that reduces H2O2 to water in the periplasm. The BCCPs studied up-to-date are soluble dihemic enzymes from non-pathogenic bacteria. This the...
