Summary: Enables catalase activity. Involved in several processes, including hydrogen peroxide catabolic process; response to L-ascorbic acid; and response to vitamin E. Located in extracellular space and peroxisomal matrix. Used to study brain ischemia; cholestasis; colitis; and lung disease (multiple). Biomarker of several diseases, including alcohol use disorder; artery disease (multiple); auditory system disease (multiple); eye disease (multiple); and neurodegenerative disease (multiple). Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including acatalasia; eye disease (multiple); lung disease (multiple); osteonecrosis; and pseudoxanthoma elasticum. Orthologous to human CAT (catalase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
