Ascorbate Peroxidase 2 (APX2) of Chlamydomonas Binds Copper and Modulates the Copper Insertion into Plastocyanin

Antioxidants, 2023
Recent phylogenetic studies have unveiled a novel class of ascorbate peroxidases called “ascorbate peroxidase-related” (APX-R). These enzymes, found in green photosynthetic eukaryotes, lack the amino acids necessary for ascorbate binding.
