Abstract
The structure and functions of peroxidases are characterized. Attentio n is focused on the mechanisms of action of horseradish peroxidase in reactions with different substrates and on correlations between struct ure and functions of various heme-containing proteins. The phenomenon of substrate-substrate activation typical of peroxidase-catalyzed reac tions is discussed.
