| Background | CAT is a key antioxidant enzyme in the bodies defense against oxidative stress. Also, it is a heme enzyme that is present in the peroxisome of nearly all aerobic cells. CAT converts the reactive oxygen species hydrogen peroxide to water and oxygen and thereby mitigates the toxic effects of hydrogen peroxide. |
| Concentration | 1 mg/ml (determined by Bradford assay) |
| Protocols | Activity assay: 1. Prepare an assay buffer with the following concentrations: 50 mM Potassium Phosphate (pH 8.0) and 0.15 % H2O2. 2. Load 150ul assay buffer into each well. 3. Add 50ul of recombinant CAT protein with 0.25ug, 0.125ug to each well. 4. Record the decrease in A260nm for 5 minutes at 25°C using UV plate. |
