Catalase, CAT

Product Specifications

Background

Catalase (CAT, EC 1.11.1.6) is a common antioxidant enzyme that catalyzes the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) into water and oxygen. It is widely present in aerobic cells containing cytochrome systems. Hydrogen peroxide is highly toxic to cells; its accumulation can lead to oxidative damage of cellular targets such as DNA, proteins, and lipids, resulting in mutagenesis and cell death. By removing hydrogen peroxide (H2O2 from cells, catalase protects against oxidative damage. The role of catalase in oxidative stress-related diseases has been extensively studied
