A peroxidase was identified in human plasma using a novel peroxidase assay. In this assay both the substrate 5-phenyl-4-pentenyl hydroperoxide (PPHP) and its reduction product, 5-phenyl-4-pentenyl alcohol (PPA) are quantitated by HPLC. Substrate specificity studies indicated that the peroxidase requires glutathione as reducing substrate. No reduction was detected using the classical heme peroxidase reducing substrates, phenol and hydroquinone. Peroxidase activity was not due to glutathione transferases. Failure to saturate the peroxidase activity with reduced glutathione and inhibition by Cd+2indicated that it is probably selenium dependent. The enzyme appears to be different from erythrocyte glutathione peroxidase based on kinetic and immunological experiments. The apparentKmvalues for PPHP are 25 μmfor erythrocyte peroxidase and 54 μmfor plasma peroxidase at 0.5 mmreduced glutathione. Anti-peroxidase prepared against bovine erythrocyte glutathione peroxidase partially inhibited human erythrocyte peroxidase but did not inhibit human plasma peroxidase.
