Opis ogólny

Research area: Cell Signaling

Catalase is an active enzyme present in aerobic organisms. It is a ferric hemoprotein and a tetramer.

Zastosowanie

Catalase from Aspergillus niger has been used:
  • as a positive control during the functional characterization of Clostridium difficile spore coat proteins.
  • as a component of the catalase solution to prepare GLOX buffer with enzymes to maintain the embryos of Caenorhabditis elegans before single-molecule fluorescence in situ hybridization (smFISH) studies
  • as a component of the imaging buffer for stochastic optical reconstruction microscopy (STORM) imaging of platelet-rich plasma
  • as a supplement in Todd Hewitt media plus 0.5 % yeast extract (THY) media for the neutralization of pneumococcal H2O2

Działania biochem./fizjol.

Catalase catalyzes the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. Each subunit of the tetramer contains iron bound to a protoheme IX group. The enzyme also strongly binds NADP, which is in close proximity to the heme group. Isoelectric point is found to be 6.5. Optimum pH for catalytic activity is 7.0. The enzyme activity is inhibited by 3-amino-1-H-1,2,4 triazole, cyanide, azide, hydroxylamine, cyanogen bromide, 2-mercaptoethanol, dithiothreitol, dianisidine, and nitrate. Incubation of catalase with ascorbate or ascorbate/Cu2+ results in degradation of the catalase molecule.
Catalase is involved in catalyzing the degradation of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to water and free oxygen. Catalase is used commercially for decomposing H2O2 as it is added as an antimicrobial agent in process streams. It also catalyzes the oxidation of electron donors like ethanol and phenols during lower concentrations of H2O2. Catalase shows antioxidant activity by protecting cells from higher levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Increased expression of catalase is observed in chronic lymphocytic leukemia, gastric cancer, glioma, and melanoma. Decreased levels of catalase are seen in acute myeloid leukemia, lung, pancreatic, prostate, and skin (non-melanoma) cancers. Hence catalase exhibits a dual role in cancer.

Freezing of solutions is not recommended.

Definicja jednostki

One unit will decompose 1.0 μmole of H2O2 per min at pH 7.0 at 25 °C, while the H2O2 concentration falls from 10.3 to 9.2 mM, measured by the rate of decrease of A240.

Catalases from 16 different organisms including representatives from all three phylogenetic clades were purified and characterized to provide a comparative picture of their respective properties. Collectively the enzymes presented a diverse range of activities and properties. Specific activities ranged from

A novel method for increasing dissolved oxygen concentration in culture media has been developed. It involves adding hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to the medium which is then decomposed to oxygen and water by catalase. Some factors affecting oxygenation of culture were

Previously, we found that catalase enhanced the protection afforded by superoxide dismutase to Escherichia coli against the simultaneous generation of superoxide and nitric oxide (Brunelli et al., Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 316:327-334, 1995). Hydrogen peroxide itself was not toxic in this
