Peroxisomal Proteostasis Involves a Lon Family Protein That Functions as Protease and Chaperone [PDF]
Proteins are subject to continuous quality control for optimal proteostasis. The knowledge of peroxisome quality control systems is still in its infancy. Here we show that peroxisomes contain a member of the Lon family of proteases (Pln).

Location of catalase in crystalline peroxisomes of methanol-grown Hansenula polymorpha [PDF]
We have studied the intraperoxisomal location of catalase in peroxisomes of methanol-grown Hansenula polymorpha by (immuno)cytochemical means. In completely crystalline peroxisomes, in which the crystalline matrix is composed of octameric alcohol oxidase

The structures of Micrococcus lysodeikticus catalase, its ferryl intermediate (compound II) and NADPH complex [PDF]
The crystal structure of the bacterial catalase from Micrococcus lysodeikticus has been refined using the gene-derived sequence both at 0.88 Angstrom resolution using data recorded at 110 K and at 1.5 Angstrom resolution with room-temperature data.

The effects of melatonin and catalase supplements on the survival of α-Synuclein-expressing saccharomyces cerevisiae cells. [PDF]
Importance: Parkinson’s disease is only one of several conditions classified under Lewy Body Disease, which is characterized by the build-up of the alpha-synuclein protein in neuronal cells. This causes cellular dysfunction and ultimately, cell death. As

Carotenoids and antioxidant enzymes as biomarkers of the impact of heavy metals in food chain [PDF]
Antioxidant enzymes (catalase and peroxidase) and carotenoids (lutein and â-carotene) are often used as biomarkers of metal contamination of water and agricultural soils.

Assessment of agrogenic impact on tea plantation soils by analysis of their enzymatic activity
Brown forest acidic soils of the humid subtropical zone of Russia, on which tea is mainly cultivated, are largely exposed to agrogenic effects, which reduce their bio-productivity.

Non-heme manganese catalase – The ‘other’ catalase [PDF]
Non-heme manganese catalases are widely distributed over microbial life and represent an environmentally important alternative to heme-containing catalases in antioxidant defense. Manganese catalases contain a binuclear manganese complex as their catalytic active site rather than a heme, and cycle between Mn(2)(II,II) and Mn(2)(III,III) states during ...
