NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes catalase, a key antioxidant enzyme in the bodies defense against oxidative stress. Catalase is a heme enzyme that is present in the peroxisome of nearly all aerobic cells. Catalase converts the reactive oxygen species hydrogen peroxide to water and oxygen and thereby mitigates the toxic effects of hydrogen peroxide. Oxidative stress is hypothesized to play a role in the development of many chronic or late-onset diseases such as diabetes, asthma, Alzheimer's disease, systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, and cancers. Polymorphisms in this gene have been associated with decreases in catalase activity but, to date, acatalasemia is the only disease known to be caused by this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]
Uniprot Description
Function: Occurs in almost all aerobically respiring organisms and serves to protect cells from the toxic effects of hydrogen peroxide. Promotes growth of cells including T-cells, B-cells, myeloid leukemia cells, melanoma cells, mastocytoma cells and normal and transformed fibroblast cells. Ref.11
Catalytic activity: 2 H2O2 = O2 + 2 H2O. Ref.11
Cofactor: Heme group.NADP.
Subunit structure: Homotetramer.
Subcellular location: Peroxisome.
Post-translational modification: The N-terminus is blocked.
Involvement in disease: Defects in CAT are the cause of acatalasemia (ACATLAS) [
MIM:614097]. A metabolic disorder characterized by absence of catalase activity in red cells and is often associated with ulcerating oral lesions. Ref.14
Sequence similarities: Belongs to the catalase family.

Product Notes
The Human beta-CG cat (Catalog #AAA720444) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA720444 ELISA Kit recognizes Human beta-CG. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Chorionic Gonadotrophin beta, ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
