OverviewOverview

We have determined the crystal structure of the chloroperoxidase (CPO), hydroperoxo reaction intermediate (CPO compound 0) at 1.75-A resolution., The intermediate was generated through controlled photoreduction of the, CPO oxygen complex during x-ray data collection, which was monitored by, recording of the crystal absorption spectra. Initially, the peroxo-anion, species was formed and then protonated to yield compound 0. Quantum, chemical calculations indicate that the peroxo-anion species is not stable, and collapses instantaneously to compound 0. Compound 0 is present in the, ferric low-spin doublet ground state and is characterized by a long O O, bond length of 1.5 A and a Fe O bond distance of 1.8 A, which is also, observed in the crystal structure.
