Abstract
Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is a heme-containing enzyme that, in the presence of peroxide and halide ions, is effective in killing various microorganisms; in addition, it exerts a wide variety of extracellular functions. Polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) are the main source of this enzyme. MPO is a myeloid cell-specific enzyme whose synthesis is tightly regulated at the promyelocyte stage of differentiation of myeloid cells. This review will consider recent developments concerning the biochemical and molecular structure, biosynthesis and processing, and various possible functions of MPO.
