Description About Lactoperoxidase from bovine milk
Lactoperoxidase is an enzyme that is naturally present in milk.
Lactoperoxidase is a glycoprotein with a hemin prosthetic group which may occur as a mixture of twoisozymes.Ithas a molecular weight of 77500 daltons.
Lactoperoxidase is present in the mammary, salivary and lacrimal glands of mammals and their respective secretions, namely milk, saliva and tears. It is one of the common constituents in bovine and human milk and is present in all mammalian milks that have been tested to date. Lactoperoxidase is the first secreted peroxidase discovered, and it plays an important role in protecting the mammary glands of lactating women and the intestinal tract of newborns from pathogenic microorganisms, and is part of the body's defense system.
The biological activity of lactoperoxidase is antibacterial. Lactoperoxidase is an enzyme with antibacterial effect in whey protein. It mainly inactivates bacteria through enzymatic reactions and inhibits the growth and metabolism of bacteria.
Lactoperoxidase and hydrogen peroxide and thiocyanate (SCN) can form the "lactoperoxidase system (LPS)". This enzyme system has antibacterial activity, can inhibit the growth of Gram-positive bacteria and negative bacteria without refrigeration, prolong the shelf life of fresh milk, and has the effect of "cold sterilization". LPS in milk not only has an antibacterial effect, but also prevents the accumulation of peroxides such as hydrogen peroxide, thereby avoiding cell damage caused by peroxides and protecting the mammary gland.
