Characterization of Amycolatopsis 75iv2 dye-decolorizing peroxidase on O -glycosides.

as a production host can produce fully active peroxidases both intracellularly and extracellularly without the need for heme supplementation. This reduces the number of downstream processing steps and is beneficial for more sustainable production of industrially relevant enzymes. Moreover, this research has extended the scope of dye-decolorizing peroxidase applications by studying naturally relevant plant secondary metabolites and analyzing the formed products. A previously overlooked artifact of radical polymerization leading to the release of the glycosyl moiety was revealed, shedding light on the mechanism of DyP peroxidases. The key aspect is the continuous addition, rather than the more common approach of a single addition, of the cosubstrate, hydrogen peroxide. This continuous addition allows the peroxidase to complete a high number of turnovers without self-oxidation.
