General Information

General Information Comment Organism
additional information homology modelling, overview Hydra vulgaris
physiological function catalase is an antioxidant and hydroperoxidase enzyme protecting the cellular environment from harmful effects of hydrogen peroxide by facilitating its degradation to oxygen and water. The catalase gene is involved in the cellular stress response and (anti)oxidative processes triggered by stressor and contaminant exposure Hydra vulgaris
