Animal heme-containing peroxidases play roles in innate immunity, hormone biosynthesis and the pathogenesis of inflammatory diseases. Using the peroxidase-like domain of Duox1 as a query, we carried out homology searching of the NCBI database. Two novel heme-containing peroxidases were identified in humans and mice. One, termed VPO1 (vascular peroxidase 1), shows highest tissue expression in heart and vascular wall. A second, VPO2, present in humans but not in mice, is 63% identical to VPO1, and is highly expressed in heart. The peroxidase-homology region of VPO1 shows 42% identity to myeloperoxidase (MPO) and 57% identity to insect peroxidase, peroxidasin. A molecular model of VPO1 peroxidase region shows a structure that is highly similar to known peroxidases, including a conserved heme-binding cavity, critical catalytic residues, and a calcium-binding site. Absorbance spectra of VPO1 are similar to lactoperoxidase and covalent attachment of the heme to VPO1 protein was demonstrated by chemiluminescent heme staining. VPO1 purified from heart or expressed in HEK cells is catalytically active and shows a Km for H2O2 of 1.5 mM. When co-expressed in cells, VPO1 can utilize H2O2 produced by Nox enzymes. VPO1 is likely to carry out peroxidative reactions in the vascular system previously attributed exclusively to MPO.
