The protein

Catalyzed reaction/ biological activity

• oxidizes ferrous iron to ferric iron for uptake by [protein|B31884DC49684A276D65E21A5F59AFDADEB9749C|EfeO]-[protein|3BED98E311EF380AE77327C7F0A83254805089C0|EfeU] [Pubmed|23764491]
• eliminates reactive oxygen species that accumulate in the presence of ferrous iron [Pubmed|23764491]
• peroxide detoxification under microaerobic conditions [Pubmed|23764491]

Protein family

• DyP-type peroxidase family (according to Swiss-Prot)

[SW|Cofactors]

• protoheme IX [Pubmed|23764491]

Effectors of protein activity

• activity is increased in the presence of [protein|B31884DC49684A276D65E21A5F59AFDADEB9749C|EfeO] due to the displacement of ferric iron [Pubmed|23764491]
