This enzyme has a molecular weight of approximately 240 kDa and typically forms a tetramer. Catalase mainly resides in peroxisomes functioning as a peroxisome marker. It expresses abundantly in the liver kidneys and erythrocytes where it plays significant roles in cellular protection against oxidative damage. The presence of Catalase makes it an ideal candidate for use in peroxisome staining and peroxisome image analysis in research.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nCatalase contributes to antioxidant defense by breaking down hydrogen peroxide preventing cellular damage. In peroxisomes it works alongside other peroxisomal enzymes to maintain cell health and metabolic regulation. Catalase does not form a complex but interacts closely with other enzymes like superoxide dismutase which dismutates superoxide radicals into less harmful substances. Increased Catalase activity levels can be measured using Catalase activity kits and activity assays allowing us to learn about peroxisome function.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nHydrogen peroxide removal by Catalase is vital in the reactive oxygen species (ROS) metabolic process and plays a part in the cellular response to oxidative stress. Catalase interacts with the glutathione peroxidase pathway safeguarding cells from oxidative stress-related damage. Superoxide dismutase works synergistically with Catalase transforming superoxide anions into hydrogen peroxide before its decomposition by Catalase. These activities highlight the essential role Catalase plays in protecting cells from oxidative stress damage.\u003cbr\u003e\nCatalase relates to conditions like acatalasemia and diabetes. Acatalasemia a condition caused by a deficiency of Catalase increases the risk of developing diabetes and other oxidative stress-related diseases. Mutations in the CAT gene can lead to decreased Catalase activity contributing to the onset of these conditions. Additionally Catalase works with other proteins like glutathione peroxidase in mitigating the effects of oxidative stress with deficiencies potentially exacerbating complications in diabetes management.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46845061529769,"sku":"ab256859","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab256859","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
