Abstract
⺠Leishmania major peroxidase is structurally hybrid enzyme of ascorbate peroxidase and cytochrome c peroxidase. ⺠We analyzed the function of proximal methionine residues in this protein. ⺠The catalytic efficiency of cytochrome c oxidation in mutant was decreased by about 50 times. ⺠We propose the proximal methionine residues in this protein are an important in the ferrocytochrome c oxidation.
