The PR oxidase, an extracellular enzyme, involved in the conversion
of PR toxin into PR acid, was purified from the culture broth of
Penicillium roqueforti ATCC 48936. The enzyme has a pI of
4.5 and a molecular mass of approximately 88 kDa, and it is a monomer.
The optimum pH for this enzyme is ca. 4.0, and the optimum temperature
is 50°C.
