About This Section

Entrez Gene summary for EPX:
This gene is a member of the peroxidase gene family and is expressed in eosinophils. The encoded precursor protein is
processed into covalently attached heavy and light chains to form the mature enzyme, which functions as an oxidant.
The enzyme is released at sites of parasitic infection or allergen stimulation to mediate lysis of protozoa or
parasitic worms. The gene is found in a cluster of three peroxidase genes at chromosome 17q23. Mutations in this gene
result in eosinophil peroxidase deficiency. (provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009)

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: PERE_HUMAN, P11678
Function: Mediates tyrosine nitration of secondary granule proteins in mature resting eosinophils. Shows significant
inhibitory activity towards Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv by inducing bacterial fragmentation and lysis

    Polymorphism: Allelic variant in EPX is associated with Japanese cedar pollinosis which is a type I allergic disease
    with ocular and nasal symptoms that develop paroxysmally on contact with Japanese cedar pollen. These symptoms, which
    occur seasonally each year, are typical features of allergic rhinitis, such as sneezing, excessive nasal secretion,
    nasal congestion, and conjunctival itching

  • Defects in EPX are the cause of eosinophil peroxidase deficiency (EPD) [MIM:261500]. EPD is an autosomal
  • recessive defect where anomalous eosinophils are characterized by nuclear hypersegmentation, hypogranulation, and
    negative peroxidase and phospholipid staining
