Anti-Catalase antibody has been used in immunohistochemical studies, immunoelectron microscopic studies and immunofluorescence studies.
Anti-Catalase Antibody detects endogenous levels of total Catalase protein. Catalase is an important antioxidant enzyme. It is located on human chromosome 11p13. Catalase is a tetrameric heme protein. It is abundantly present in aerobic organisms and most of the mammalian tissues.
Catalase helps in the clearance of reactive oxygen species. Mutation in catalase (CAT) gene result in the progress of essential hypertension (EH). It helps to convert hydrogen peroxide to water and molecular oxygen.
