Comments The enzyme in blood plasma (ceruloplasmin) belongs to the family of multicopper oxidases. In humans it accounts for 95% of plasma copper. It oxidizes Fe(II) to Fe(III), which allows the subsequent incorporation of the latter into proteins such as apotransferrin and lactoferrin. An enzyme from iron oxidizing bacterium strain TI-1 contains heme a.
Cofactor Cu cation
History
Reactions 4 Fe(2+) + 4 H(+) + O(2) = 4 Fe(3+) + 2 H(2)O.
