Catalase and NO CATALASE ACTIVITY1 promote autophagy-dependent cell death in Arabidopsis Universiteit Gent
Catalase compromises the development of the insect and mammalian stages of Trypanosoma brucei Instituut voor Tropische Geneeskunde
Catalase is a widespread heme-containing enzyme, which converts hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to water and molecular oxygen, thereby protecting cells from the toxic effects of H2O2. Trypanosoma brucei is an aerobic protist, which conspicuously lacks this potent enzyme, present in virtually all organisms exposed to oxidative stress. To uncover the reasons for its absence in T. brucei, we overexpressed different catalases in procyclic and ...

PEX5 binds monomeric catalase blocking its tetramerization, and releases it upon binding the N-terminal domain of PEX14 KU Leuven
Newly synthesized peroxisomal matrix proteins are targeted to the organelle by PEX5. PEX5 has a dual role in this process. First, it acts as a soluble receptor recognizing these proteins in the cytosol. Subsequently, at the peroxisomal docking/translocation machinery, PEX5 promotes their translocation across the organelle membrane. Despite significant advances made in recent years, several aspects of this pathway remain unclear. Two important ...
