Bromide peroxidase is a vanadate-containing haloperoxidase from red and brown marine algae (Rhodophyta, Phaeophyta), also found in eukaryotes and bacteria. It brominates a range of organic molecules such as sesquiterpenes, forming stable C-Br bonds, and also oxidizes iodide; it converts RH plus HBr and H2O2 into RBr and 2 H2O.
