Dog glycosylated myeloperoxidase dimer: heavy chain (pink and yellow), light chain (grey and green) containing heme complex with Ca+2 ions (green) (PDB entry 1myp) Show:Asymmetric Unit Biological Assembly Drag the structure with the mouse to rotate   Export Animated Image Function Myeloperoxidase (MPO) catalyzes the production of HOCl from hydrogen peroxide and chloride ion during the neutrophil respiratory burst. The hypochlorous acid is used by the neutrophil to kill bacteria and other pathogens[1]. MPO is a dimer consisting of 2 light chains and two variable-length heavy chains. MPO has a heme pigment which causes its green color in secretions like mucus which are rich in neutrophils. Relevance MPO inhibitors are tested as therapeutic drugs in a number of kidney, inflammatory, cardiovascular, neurodegenerative and immune-mediated diseases[2]. Disease MPO is an important pathogenic factor in glomerular and tubulointestitial diseases[3]. MPO polymorphism is associated with increased risk of Alzheimer's disease[4].
