Disease

PERM_HUMAN Defects in MPO are the cause of myeloperoxidase deficiency (MPOD) [MIM:254600. A disorder characterized by decreased myeloperoxidase activity in neutrophils and monocytes that results in disseminated candidiasis.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5]

Function

PERM_HUMAN Part of the host defense system of polymorphonuclear leukocytes. It is responsible for microbicidal activity against a wide range of organisms. In the stimulated PMN, MPO catalyzes the production of hypohalous acids, primarily hypochlorous acid in physiologic situations, and other toxic intermediates that greatly enhance PMN microbicidal activity.

Publication Abstract from PubMed

A 3-A-resolution X-ray crystal structure of canine myeloperoxidase has previously revealed the overall structure of the molecule, including the polypeptide backbone conformation, but did not provide an unambiguous structure for the covalently bound heme. A higher resolution (2.28 A) X-ray crystal structure of human myeloperoxidase has now shown that the heme is a novel derivative of protoporphyrin IX in which three ring substituents form covalent bonds with amino acid side chains in the protein. Modified methyl groups on pyrrole rings A and C form ester linkages with glutamate 242 and aspartate 94, while a covalent bond between the vinyl group on ring A and the sulfur atom of methionine 243 results in a sulfonium ion linkage. The heme tetrapyrrole ring also shows considerable distortion from the planar conformation seen in most heme-containing proteins. The observed bending appears to result from these covalent bonds between diametrically opposed pyrrole rings A and C and the protein. Sequence comparisons suggest that the two ester linkages to the heme may also occur in other homologous mammalian peroxidases, but that the sulfonium ion linkage may be a unique feature of myeloperoxidase.
