Abstract
Peroxidases are essential enzymes that catalyze redox reactions, with wide-ranging biological implications. Among these, an enhanced ascorbate peroxidase (APEX) has emerged as a valuable tool for studying intricate intracellular events with spatiotemporal precision, particularly in protein-protein, protein-RNA, and protein-DNA interaction networks in living cells. This review discusses APEX's structural and functional attributes, its evolution through genetic engineering, and its transformative applications in high-resolution mapping used for proteomic and transcriptomic studies. Furthermore, it highlights recent advancements in substrate innovation and addresses current challenges and future directions in leveraging APEX for cutting-edge biological research.

期刊介绍:
Proteomes (ISSN 2227-7382) is an open access, peer reviewed journal on all aspects of proteome science. Proteomes covers the multi-disciplinary topics of structural and functional biology, protein chemistry, cell biology, methodology used for protein analysis, including mass spectrometry, protein arrays, bioinformatics, HTS assays, etc. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. Therefore, there is no restriction on the length of papers. Scope: -whole proteome analysis of any organism -disease/pharmaceutical studies -comparative proteomics -protein-ligand/protein interactions -structure/functional proteomics -gene expression -methodology -bioinformatics -applications of proteomics
