title: Purification of bromoperoxidase from Corallina pilulifera.
abstract: Bromoperoxidase was purified from the crude extract of Corallina pilulifera (Corallinaeae, Rhodophyta) and found to be homogeneous upon disc gel electrophoresis by precipitation of ammonium sulfate and sequential column chromatographies of DEAE-Sepharose CL-6B, Sepharose 6B and Cellulofine GC-700m. The purified enzyme did not exhibit optical absorption spectra of a hemoprotein. Therefore, bromoperoxidase of C. pilulifera was completely distinguishable from other haloperoxidases which have heme-irons at the catalytic sites.
