Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is a cationic homodimer which is made up of two 15-kDa light chains and two variable-weight glycosylated heavy chains that are bound to a prosthetic heme group. It is essentially a lysosomal protein which is stored in azurophilic granules of neutrophil and then can be released into the extracellular space during the process of degranulation.
