Peroxidases are widespread key antioxidant enzymes that catalyse the oxidation of electron donor substrates in parallel with the decomposition of H2O2. In this work, a novel tomato peroxidase, named SAAP2, was isolated from MicroTom cell cultures, purified, and characterised. The enzyme was identified with 64% sequence coverage as the leprx21 gene product (suberization-associated anionic peroxidase 2-like) from Solanum lycopersicum, 334 amino acids long. Compared to other plant peroxidases, SAAP2 was more active at elevated temperatures, with the optimal temperature and pH at 90 °C and 5.0, respectively. Furthermore, the enzyme retained more than 80% of its maximal activity over the range of 70–80 °C and the presence of NaCl (1.0–4.5 M). It also exhibited broad pH versatility (65% relative activity over the pH range 2.0–7.0), acid-tolerance (80% residual activity after 22 h at pH 2.0–7.0), high thermostability (50% residual activity after 2 h at 80 °C) and proteolytic resistance. SAAP2 exhibited exceptional resistance under thermo-acidic conditions compared to the horseradish peroxidase benchmark, suggesting that it may find potential applications as a supplement or anti-pollution agent in the food industry.
