Descriptor English: Eosinophil Peroxidase
Descriptor Spanish: Peroxidasa del Eosinófilo
Descriptor peroxidasa del eosinófilo
Scope note: Peroxidasa de 66 kDa que se encuentra en los gránulos del EOSINÓFILO. La peroxidasa de los eosinófilos es una proteína catiónica con un pI de 10,8, que consta de una cadena pesada y una cadena ligera. Posee actividad citotóxica frente a las BACTERIAS y otros microorganismos, atribuida a su actividad peroxidasa.
