Abstract:
An isolated polypeptide having peroxidase activity, selected from the group consisting of:(a) a polypeptide having an amino acid sequence which has at least 75% identity with amino acids 22 to 370 of SEQ ID NO:2 or amino acids 19 to 362 of SEQ ID NO:6, or at least 85% identity with amino acids 22 to 365 of SEQ ID NO:4; (b) a polypeptide which is encoded by a nucleic acid sequence which hybridizes under high stringency conditions with (i) nucleotides 772 to 2302 of SEQ ID NO:1, nucleotides 2008 to 3462 of SEQ ID NO:3, or nucleotides 2848 to 4247 of SEQ ID NO:5, (ii) the cDNA sequence contained in nucleotides 772 to 2302 of SEQ ID NO:1, nucleotides 2008 to 3462 of SEQ ID NO:3, or nucleotides 2848 to 4247 of SEQ ID NO:5, or (iii) a complementary strand of (i) or (ii); (c) a fragment of (a), or (b), that has peroxidase activity.
