In the presence of H2O2, horseradish peroxidase (HRP) catalyzes the one-electron oxidation of a porphyrinogenic agent, 3,5-dicarbethoxy-2,6-dimethyl-4-ethyl-1,4-dihydropyridine (DDEP), leading to formation of an ethyl radical, inactivation of the enzyme, and formation of an altered heme product. The loss of heme
