Cystoclonium purpureum

Pedersen M (1976) A brominating and hydroxylating peroxidase from the red alga Cystoclonium purpureum. Physiol Plant 37 6-11. 

A completely purified halogenating enzyme has not been isolated from marine sources, but the existence of haloperoxidases has been securely established. Pedersen (1976) succeeded in demonstrating the existence of a brominating cind hydroxylating enzyme in the red alga Cystoclonium purpureum, and Manley (1977) has recently illustrated the in vitro bromina-tion of precursor molecules in cell-free extracts of the red alga Odonthalia floccosa. Both enzymes were found to catalyse the bromination of phenolic precursors such as p-hydroxybenzyl alcohol (55) to yield the halo derivatives as in 56.
