1.11.1.21 Caulobacter vibrioides the katG gene is induced by hydrogen peroxide, KatG activity is constant throughout exponential growth and is induced 50fold in the stationary phase up

General Information

EC Number General Information Comment Organism
1.11.1.21 malfunction the null katG mutation has little effect on the growth rate in the absence of added H2O2. However, growth inhibition is evident with low levels of exogenous H2O2 Caulobacter vibrioides
1.11.1.21 physiological function the catalatic and/or peroxidatic activity of KatG is important in reducing H2O2 concentration to a steady-state level compatible with sustained exponential growth. Catalase-peroxidase clearly plays a critical role in stationary-phase survival Caulobacter vibrioides
