Comments

FUNCTION: Plays a key role in hydrogen peroxide removal.
CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: L-ascorbate + H₂O₂ = dehydroascorbate + 2 H₂O.
COFACTOR: Binds 1 heme B (iron-protoporphyrin IX) group (By similarity).
COFACTOR: Binds 1 potassium or calcium ion per subunit (By similarity).
ENZYME REGULATION: Inhibited by p-chloromercuriphenylsulfonic acid (CMPSA).

BIOPHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES:

Kinetic parameters:	K_M=1 mM for ascorbate;
	K_M=0.7 mM for H₂O₂;
	V_max=20 mM/min/mg enzyme with ascorbate as substrate;
	V_max=3 mM/min/mg enzyme with H₂O₂ as substrate;
pH dependence:	Optimum pH is 6-7;

SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm (Probable).
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in aerial vegetative parts and reproductive organs.
INDUCTION: By stress and hormones. By infection with rice blast fungus (M.grisea). Circadian-regulation. Expression is higher during the light phase than during the dark phase.
SIMILARITY: Belongs to the peroxidase family. Ascorbate peroxidase subfamily.
