Natural oxidases mainly rely on cofactors and well-arranged amino acid residues for catalysing electron-transfer reactions but suffer from non-recovery of their activity upon externally induced protein unfolding. However, it remains unknown whether residues at the active site can catalyse similar reactions in the absence of the cofactor. Here, we describe a series of self-assembling, histidine-rich peptides, as short as a dipeptide, with catalytic function similar to that of haem-dependent peroxidases. The histidine residues o
