Two peroxidases (EC. 1.11.1.7), POD I and POD II were purified from the roots
of cultivatedRaphanus sativus L. Var. Cicil by one step ion-exchange chromatography
after fractionation by acetone. The molecular weight of these enzymes were 43000
and 41000 Daltons and RZ 1.2 and 2.0 for POD I and POD II, respectively. Both
enzymes consisted of a single polypeptide chain on SDS-PAGE. The maximum
activity of POD I was observed at pH 4.6 and 30°C and for POD II, at pH 6.5 and
60°C. The Km value of POD I for H202 was 7.26 mM and for POD II, 2 mM toward
o-dianisidin. Both isoenzymes were stable for 48 hours in temperatures up to 40°C
and stable in pH 4-8 for 3 hours.
