EC 1.11.1.21 Details

show Brenda entry

EC number

1.11.1.21

Accepted name

catalase-peroxidase

Reaction

(1) donor + H₂O₂ = oxidized donor + 2 H₂O;; (2) 2 H₂O₂ = O₂ + 2 H₂O

Other name(s)

katG (gene name)

Systematic name

donor:hydrogen-peroxide oxidoreductase

Comment

Differs from EC 1.11.1.7, peroxidase in having a relatively high catalase (EC 1.11.1.6) activity with H₂O₂ as donor, releasing O₂; both activities use the same heme active site. In Mycobacterium tuberculosis it is responsible for activation of the commonly used antitubercular drug, isoniazid.
