Structural highlights

Function

KATG2_MAGO7 Bifunctional enzyme with both catalase and broad-spectrum peroxidase activity. Confers resistance to H(2)O(2) in hyphae. May play an antioxidative role in fungal defense against the host-produced H(2)O(2) (oxidative burst) at the early stage of plant infection.^{[1] [2]}
