Intricate balance of dually-localized catalase modulates infectivity of Leptomonas seymouri (Kinetoplastea: Trypanosomatidae). Int J Parasitol 2024; 54:391-400. [PMID: 38663543 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpara.2024.04.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2023] [Revised: 03/24/2024] [Accepted: 04/19/2024] [Indexed: 05/02/2024]
Abstract
Nearly all aerobic organisms are equipped with catalases, powerful enzymes scavenging hydrogen peroxide and facilitating defense against harmful reactive oxygen species. In trypanosomatids, this enzyme was not present in the common ancestor, yet it had been independently acquired by different lineages of monoxenous trypanosomatids from different bacteria at least three times. This observation posited an obvious question: why was catalase so "sought after" if many trypanosomatid groups do just fine without it? In this work, we analyzed subcellular localization and function of catalase in Leptomonas seymouri. We demonstrated that this enzyme is present in the cytoplasm and a subset of glycosomes, and that its cytoplasmic retention is H2O2-dependent. The ablation of catalase in this parasite is not detrimental in vivo, while its overexpression resulted in a substantially higher parasite load in the experimental infection of Dysdercus peruvianus. We propose that the capacity of studied flagellates to modulate the catalase activity in the midgut of its insect host facilitates their development and protects them from oxidative damage at elevated temperatures.

Martins MC, Alves CM, Teixeira M, Folgosa F. The flavodiiron protein from Syntrophomonas wolfei has five domains and acts both as an NADH:O 2 or an NADH:H 2 O 2 oxidoreductase. FEBS J 2024; 291:1275-1294. [PMID: 38129989 DOI: 10.1111/febs.17040] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2023] [Revised: 11/10/2023] [Accepted: 12/20/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023]
Abstract
Flavodiiron proteins (FDPs) are a family of enzymes with a significant role in O2 /H2 O2 and/or NO detoxification through the reduction of these species to H2 O or N2 O, respectively. All FDPs contain a minimal catalytic unit of two identical subunits, each one having a metallo-β-lactamase-like domain harboring the catalytic diiron site, and a flavodoxin-like domain. However, more complex and diverse arrangements in terms of domains are found in this family, of which the class H enzymes are among the most complex. One of such FDPs is encoded in the genome of the anaerobic bacterium Syntrophomonas wolfei subsp. wolfei str. Goettingen G311. Besides the core domains, this protein is predicted to have three additional ones after the flavodoxin core domain: two short-chain rubredoxins and a NAD(P)H:rubredoxin oxidoreductase-like domain. This enzyme, FDP_H, was produced and characterized and the presence of the predicted cofactors was investigated by a set of biochemical and spectroscopic methodologies. Syntrophomonas wolfei FDP_H exhibited a remarkable O2 reduction activity with a kcat = 52.0 ± 1.2 s-1 and a negligible NO reduction activity (~ 100 times lower than with O2 ), with NADH as an electron donor, that is, it is an oxygen-selective FDP. In addition, this enzyme showed the highest turnover value for H2 O2 reduction (kcat = 19.1 ± 2.2 s-1 ) ever observed among FDPs. Kinetic studies of site-directed mutants of iron-binding cysteines at the two rubredoxin domains demonstrated the essential role of these centers since their absence leads to a significant decrease or even abolishment of O2 and H2 O2 reduction activities.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2024; 63:e202316779.

Abstract
A nanozyme with neighboring single-iron sites (Fe2 -SAzyme) was introduced as a bioinspired catalase mimic, featuring excellent activity under varied conditions, twice as high as that of random Fe1 -SAzyme and ultrahigh H2 O2 affinity as that of bioenzymes. Surprisingly, the interatomic spacing tuning between adjacent iron sites also suppressed the competitive peroxidase pathway, remarkably increasing the catalase/peroxidase selectivity up to ~6 times compared to Fe1 -SAzyme. This dramatically switched the catalytic activity of Fe-SAzymes from generating (i.e. Fe1 -SAzymes, preferably mimicking peroxidase) to scavenging ROS (i.e. Fe2 -SAzymes, dominantly mimicking catalase). Theoretical and experimental investigations suggested that the pairwise single-iron sites may serve as a robust molecular tweezer to efficiently trap and decompose H2 O2 into O2 , via cooperative hydrogen-bonding induced end-bridge adsorption. The versatile mechano-assisted in situ MOF capsulation strategy enabled facile access to neighboring M2 -SAzyme (M=Fe, Ir, Pt), even up to a 1000 grams scale, but with no obvious scale-up effect for both structures and performances.

CHEMOSPHERE 2024; 349:140847.

Abstract
Nonradical species with great resistance to interference have shown great advantages in complex wastewater treatment. Herein, a novel system constructed by biodegradable tetrakis-(4-carboxyphenyl)-porphyrinatoiron(III) (FeIII-TCPP) and peroxymonosulfate (PMS) was proposed for facile decontamination. Nonradical pathway is observed in FeIII-TCPP/PMS, where 1O2 and high-valent iron-oxo species play dominant roles. The genres and valence of high-valent iron-oxo species, including iron(IV)-oxo porphyrin radical-cationic species [OFeIV-TCPP•+] and iron(IV)-hydroxide species [FeIV-TCPP(OH)], are ascertained, along with their generation mechanism. The axial ligand on the iron axial site affects the ground spin state of FeIII-TCPP, further influencing the thermodynamic reaction pathway of active species. With trace catalyst in micromoles, FeIII-TCPP exhibits high efficiency by degrading bisphenol S (BPS) completely within 5 min, while Co2+/PMS can only achieve a maximum of 26.2% under identical condition. Beneficial from nonradical pathways, FeIII-TCPP/PMS demonstrates a wide pH range of 3-10 and exhibits minimal sensitivity to interference of concomitant materials. BPS is primarily eliminated through β-scission and hydroxylation. Specifically, 1O2 electrophilically attacks the C-S bond of BPS, while high-valent iron-oxo species interacts with BPS through an oxygen-bound mechanism. This study provides novel insights into efficient activation of PMS by iron porphyrin, enabling the removal of refractory pollutants through nonradical pathway.

Abstract
Catalase is an antioxidant enzyme that breaks down hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) into molecular oxygen and water. In all monofunctional catalases the pathway that H2O2 takes to the catalytic centre is via the `main channel'. However, the structure of this channel differs in large-subunit and small-subunit catalases. In large-subunit catalases the channel is 15 Å longer and consists of two distinct parts, including a hydrophobic lower region near the heme and a hydrophilic upper region where multiple H2O2 routes are possible. Conserved glutamic acid and threonine residues are located near the intersection of these two regions. Mutations of these two residues in the Scytalidium thermophilum catalase had no significant effect on catalase activity. However, the secondary phenol oxidase activity was markedly altered, with kcat and kcat/Km values that were significantly increased in the five variants E484A, E484I, T188D, T188I and T188F. These variants also showed a lower affinity for inhibitors of oxidase activity than the wild-type enzyme and a higher affinity for phenolic substrates. Oxidation of heme b to heme d did not occur in most of the studied variants. Structural changes in solvent-chain integrity and channel architecture were also observed. In summary, modification of the main-channel gate glutamic acid and threonine residues has a greater influence on the secondary activity of the catalase enzyme, and the oxidation of heme b to heme d is predominantly inhibited by their conversion to aliphatic and aromatic residues.

Abstract
Aging is a major risk factor for metabolic disorders. Polyunsaturated fatty acid-derived bioactive lipids play critical roles as signaling molecules in metabolic processes. Nonetheless, their effects on age-related liver steatosis remain unknown. Here we show that senescent liver cells induce liver steatosis in a paracrine manner. Linoleic acid-derived 9-hydroxy-octadecadienoic acid (9-HODE) and 13-HODE increase in middle-aged (12-month-old) and aged (20-month-old) male mouse livers and conditioned medium from senescent hepatocytes and macrophages. Arachidonate 15-lipoxygenase, an enzyme for 13-HODE and 9-HODE production, is upregulated in senescent cells. A 9-HODE and 13-HODE mixture induces liver steatosis and activates SREBP1. Furthermore, catalase (CAT) is a direct target of 13-HODE, and its activity is decreased by 13-HODE. CAT overexpression reduces 13-HODE-induced liver steatosis and protects male mice against age-related liver steatosis. Therefore, 13-HODE produced by senescent hepatocytes and macrophages activates SREBP1 by directly inhibiting CAT activity and promotes liver steatosis.

Abstract
Red cell diseases encompass a group of inherited or acquired erythrocyte disorders that affect the structure, function, or production of red blood cells (RBCs). These disorders can lead to various clinical manifestations, including anemia, hemolysis, inflammation, and impaired oxygen-carrying capacity. Oxidative stress, characterized by an imbalance between the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the antioxidant defense mechanisms, plays a significant role in the pathophysiology of red cell diseases. In this review, we discuss the most relevant oxidant species involved in RBC damage, the enzymatic and low molecular weight antioxidant systems that protect RBCs against oxidative injury, and finally, the role of oxidative stress in different red cell diseases, including sickle cell disease, glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency, and pyruvate kinase deficiency, highlighting the underlying mechanisms leading to pathological RBC phenotypes.

Abstract
Liquid droplets of biomolecules play key roles in organizing cellular behavior, and are also technologically relevant, yet physical studies of dynamic processes of such droplets have generally been lacking. Here, we investigate and quantify the dynamics of formation of dilute internal inclusions, i.e., vacuoles, within a model system consisting of liquid droplets of DNA 'nanostar' particles. When acted upon by DNA-cleaving restriction enzymes, these DNA droplets exhibit cycles of appearance, growth, and bursting of internal vacuoles. Analysis of vacuole growth shows their radius increases linearly in time. Further, vacuoles pop upon reaching the droplet interface, leading to droplet motion driven by the osmotic pressure of restriction fragments captured in the vacuole. We develop a model that accounts for the linear nature of vacuole growth, and the pressures associated with motility, by describing the dynamics of diffusing restriction fragments. The results illustrate the complex non-equilibrium dynamics possible in biomolecular condensates.

The mammalian peroxisomal membrane is permeable to both GSH and GSSG - Implications for intraperoxisomal redox homeostasis. Redox Biol 2023; 63:102764. [PMID: 37257275 DOI: 10.1016/j.redox.2023.102764] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/01/2023] [Revised: 05/14/2023] [Accepted: 05/24/2023] [Indexed: 06/02/2023] Open
Abstract
Despite the large amounts of H2O2 generated in mammalian peroxisomes, cysteine residues of intraperoxisomal proteins are maintained in a reduced state. The biochemistry behind this phenomenon remains unexplored, and simple questions such as "is the peroxisomal membrane permeable to glutathione?" or "is there a thiol-disulfide oxidoreductase in the organelle matrix?" still have no answer. We used a cell-free in vitro system to equip rat liver peroxisomes with a glutathione redox sensor. The organelles were then incubated with glutathione solutions of different redox potentials and the oxidation/reduction kinetics of the redox sensor was monitored. The data suggest that the mammalian peroxisomal membrane is promptly permeable to both reduced and oxidized glutathione. No evidence for the presence of a robust thiol-disulfide oxidoreductase in the peroxisomal matrix could be found. Also, prolonged incubation of organelle suspensions with glutaredoxin 1 did not result in the internalization of the enzyme. To explore a potential role of glutathione in intraperoxisomal redox homeostasis we performed kinetic simulations. The results suggest that even in the absence of a glutaredoxin, glutathione is more important in protecting cysteine residues of matrix proteins from oxidation by H2O2 than peroxisomal catalase itself.

Peroxymonosulfate activated by natural porphyrin derivatives for rapid degradation of organic pollutants via singlet oxygen and high-valent iron-oxo species. CHEMOSPHERE 2023; 331:138783.

Abstract
The activation of peroxymonosulfate (PMS) by sodium ferric chlorophyllin (SFC), a natural porphyrin derivative extracted from chlorophyll-rich substances, was systematically investigated for facile degradation of bisphenol A (BPA). SFC/PMS is capable of degrading 97.5% of BPA in the first 10 min with the initial BPA concentration of 20 mg/L and pH = 3, whereas conventional Fe2+/PMS could only remove 22.6% of BPA under identical conditions. It demonstrates a prominent flexibility to a broad pH range of 3-11 with complete pollutant degradation. A remarkable tolerance toward concomitant high concentration of inorganic anions (100 mM) was also observed, among which (bi)carbonates can even accelerate the degradation. The nonradical oxidation species, including high-valent iron-oxo porphyrin species and 1O2, are identified as dominant species. Particularly, the generation and participation of 1O2 in the reaction is evidenced by experimental and theoretical methods, which is vastly different from the previous study. The specific activation mechanism is unveiled by density functional theory (DFT) calculations and ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations. The results shed light on effective PMS activation by iron (III) porphyrin and the proposed natural porphyrin derivative would be a promising candidate for efficient abatement of recalcitrant pollutants toward complicated aqueous media in wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Heme and nonheme dimanganese catalases are widely distributed in living organisms to participate in antioxidant defenses that protect biological systems from oxidative stress. The key step in these processes is the disproportionation of H2O2 to O2 and water, which can be interpreted via two different mechanisms, namely via the formation of high-valent oxoiron(IV) and peroxodimanganese(III) or diiron(III) intermediates. In order to better understand the mechanism of this important process, we have chosen such synthetic model compounds that can be used to map the nature of the catalytically active species and the factors influencing their activities. Our previously reported μ-1,2-peroxo-diiron(III)-containing biomimics are good candidates, as both proposed reactive intermediates (FeIVO and FeIII2(μ-O2)) can be derived from them. Based on this, we have investigated and compared five heterobidentate-ligand-containing model systems including the previously reported and fully characterized [FeII(L1-4)3]2+ (L1 = 2-(2'-pyridyl)-1H-benzimidazole, L2 = 2-(2'-pyridyl)-N-methyl-benzimidazole, L3 = 2-(4-thiazolyl)-1H-benzimidazole and L4 = 2-(4'-methyl-2'-pyridyl)-1H-benzimidazole) and the novel [FeII(L5)3]2+ (L5 = 2-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)-pyridine) precursor complexes with their spectroscopically characterized μ-1,2-peroxo-diiron(III) intermediates. Based on the reaction kinetic measurements and previous computational studies, it can be said that the disproportionation reaction of H2O2 can be interpreted through the formation of an electrophilic oxoiron(IV) intermediate that can be derived from the homolysis of the O-O bond of the forming μ-1,2-peroxo-diiron(III) complexes. We also found that the disproportionation rate of the H2O2 shows a linear correlation with the FeIII/FeII redox potential (in the range of 804 mV-1039 mV vs. SCE) of the catalysts controlled by the modification of the ligand environment. Furthermore, it is important to note that the two most active catalysts with L3 and L5 ligands have a high-spin electronic configuration.

Abstract
Salt stress is a severe type of environmental stress. It adversely affects agricultural production worldwide. The overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is the most frequent phenomenon during salt stress. ROS are extremely reactive and, in high amounts, noxious, leading to destructive processes and causing cellular damage. However, at lower concentrations, ROS function as secondary messengers, playing a critical role as signaling molecules, ensuring regulation of growth and adjustment to multifactorial stresses. Plants contain several enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants that can detoxify ROS. The production of ROS and their scavenging are important aspects of the plant's normal response to adverse conditions. Recently, this field has attracted immense attention from plant scientists; however, ROS-induced signaling pathways during salt stress remain largely unknown. In this review, we will discuss the critical role of different antioxidants in salt stress tolerance. We also summarize the recent advances on the detrimental effects of ROS, on the antioxidant machinery scavenging ROS under salt stress, and on the crosstalk between ROS and other various signaling molecules, including nitric oxide, hydrogen sulfide, calcium, and phytohormones. Moreover, the utilization of "-omic" approaches to improve the ROS-regulating antioxidant system during the adaptation process to salt stress is also described.

Abstract
Fresh fruits and vegetable products are easily perishable during postharvest handling due to enzymatic browning reactions. This phenomenon has contributed to a significant loss of food. To reveal the physiological changes in fresh-cut potato tubers at the molecular level, a transcriptome analysis of potato tubers after cutting was carried out. A total of 10,872, 10,449, and 11,880 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified at 4 h, 12 h and 24 h after cutting, respectively. More than 87.5% of these DEGs were classified into the categories of biological process (BP) and molecular function (MF) based on Gene Ontology (GO) analysis. There was a difference in the response to cutting at different stages after the cutting of potato tubers. The genes related to the phenol and fatty biosynthesis pathways, which are responsible for enzymatic browning and wound healing in potato tubers, were significantly enriched at 0-24 h after cutting. Most genes related to the enzymatic browning of potato tubers were up-regulated in response to cut-wounding. Plant hormone biosynthesis, signal molecular biosynthesis and transduction-related genes, such as gibberelin (GA), cytokinin (CK), ethylene (ET), auxin (IAA), jasmonic acid (JA), salicylic (SA), and Respiratory burst oxidase (Rboh) significantly changed at the early stage after cutting. In addition, the transcription factors involved in the wound response were the most abundant at the early stage after cutting. The transcription factor with the greatest response to injury was MYB, followed by AP2-EREBP, C3H and WRKY. This study revealed the physiological changes at the molecular level of fresh-cut potato tubers after cutting. This information is needed for developing a better approach to enhancing the postharvest shelf life of fresh processed potato and the breeding of potato plants that are resistant to enzymatic browning.

Abstract
Red blood cells (RBCs) are exposed to both external and internal sources of oxidants that challenge their integrity and compromise their physiological function and supply of oxygen to tissues. Autoxidation of oxyhemoglobin is the main source of endogenous RBC oxidant production, yielding superoxide radical and then hydrogen peroxide. In addition, potent oxidants from other blood cells and the surrounding endothelium can reach the RBCs. Abundant and efficient enzymatic systems and low molecular weight antioxidants prevent most of the damage to the RBCs and also position the RBCs as a sink of vascular oxidants that allow the body to maintain a healthy circulatory system. Among the antioxidant enzymes, the thiol-dependent peroxidase peroxiredoxin 2, highly abundant in RBCs, is essential to keep the redox balance. A great part of the RBC antioxidant activity is supported by an active glucose metabolism that provides reducing power in the form of NADPH via the pentose phosphate pathway. There are several RBC defects and situations that generate oxidative stress conditions where the defense mechanisms are overwhelmed, and these include glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiencies (favism), hemoglobinopathies like sickle cell disease and thalassemia, as well as packed RBCs for transfusion that suffer from storage lesions. These oxidative stress-associated pathologies of the RBCs underline the relevance of redox balance in these anucleated cells that lack a mechanism of DNA-inducible antioxidant response and rely on a complex and robust network of antioxidant systems.

Abstract
Un gran número de los procesos metabólicos y biológicos son catalizados por enzimas; las enzimas son compuestos químicos orgánicos que pertenecen al grupo específico de las biomoléculas denominadas proteínas. Las enzimas poseen en su estructura molecular cuaternaria, organizaciones internas que permiten definir un lugar denominado centro activo; su función química, cinética y termodinámica se relacionan con la disminución de la energía de activación en el curso de la reacción neta.
Los mecanismos de reacción enzimáticos que suceden en las interacciones metabólicas de los microorganismos han permitido desarrollar una serie de pruebas cualitativas que determinan la presencia o ausencia de bacterias en una muestra o un cultivo haciendo uso de técnicas rápidas que facilitan el diagnóstico clínico.

Hansberg W. Monofunctional Heme-Catalases. Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:2173. [PMID: 36358546 PMCID: PMC9687031 DOI: 10.3390/antiox11112173] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2022] [Revised: 10/15/2022] [Accepted: 10/17/2022] [Indexed: 09/17/2023] Open
Abstract
The review focuses on four issues that are critical for the understanding of monofunctional catalases. How hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) reaches the active site and outcompetes water molecules to be able to function at a very high rate is one of the issues examined. Part of the answer is a gate valve system that is instrumental to drive out solvent molecules from the final section of the main channel. A second issue relates to how the enzyme deals with an unproductive reactive compound I (Cpd I) intermediate. Peroxidatic two and one electron donors and the transfer of electrons to the active site from NADPH and other compounds are reviewed. The new ascribed catalase reactions are revised, indicating possible measurement pitfalls. A third issue concerns the heme b to heme d oxidation, why this reaction occurs only in some large-size subunit catalases (LSCs), and the possible role of singlet oxygen in this and other modifications. The formation of a covalent bond between the proximal tyrosine with the vicinal residue is analyzed. The last issue refers to the origin and function of the additional C-terminal domain (TD) of LSCs. The TD has a molecular chaperone activity that is traced to a gene fusion between a Hsp31-type chaperone and a small-size subunit catalase (SSC).

Abstract
In this work, the investigation of type and inhibitory strength of catalase by two pairs of aminoalkanol derivatives (1,7 diEthyl- and 1,7-diMethyl-8,9-diphenyl-4-azatricyclo (5.2.1.02.6) dec-8-ene- 3,5,10-trione) has been presented. The obtained results allowed for the determination of all kinetic parameters (Km, Vmax, slope angles of Lineweaver-Burk plots, Ki and IC50) on the basis of which it was shown that all four aminoalkanol derivatives are competitive inhibitors of catalase. However, the strength of action of each of them depends on the type of substituents present in the main structure of the molecule. Subtle differences in the potency of individual derivatives were possible to detect thanks to the developed, sensitive method of capillary electrophoresis, which allowed simultaneous monitoring of the mutual changes in the concentrations of substrates and products of the reaction catalyzed by the enzyme. Detailed values of kinetic parameters showed that all derivatives are weak inhibitors of catalase, which in this case is a big advantage because each inhibition of catalase activity is associated with a greater amount of accumulated, harmful reactive oxygen species. The results of docking studies also show the convergence of the binding energies values of individual inhibitors with all kinetic parameters of the investigated catalase inhibition and thus additionally confirm the weak inhibitory strength of all four aminoalkanol derivatives.

Abstract
d-Penicillamine (d-Pen) is a sulfur compound used in the management of rheumatoid arthritis, Wilson's disease (WD), and alcohol dependence. Many side effects are associated with its use, particularly after long-term treatment. However, the molecular basis for such side effects is poorly understood. Based on the well-known oxidase activity of hemoproteins and the participation of catalase in cellular H2O2 redox signaling, we posit that d-Pen could inactivate catalase, thus disturbing H2O2 levels. Herein, we report on the molecular basis that could partly explain the side effects associated with this drug compound, and we demonstrate that it induces the formation of compound II, a temporarily inactive state of the enzyme, through two distinct mechanisms. Initially, d-Pen reacts with native catalase and/or iron metal ions, used to mimic non-heme iron overload observed in long-term treated WD patients, to generate thiyl radicals. These radicals partake in a futile redox cycle, thus producing superoxide radical anions O2•- and hydrogen peroxide H2O2. Then, either H2O2 unexpectedly reacts with reduced CAT-Fe(II) to produce compound II or both aforementioned reactive oxygen species intervene in compound II generation through compound I formation and then reduction. These findings support the evidence that d-Pen could perturb H2O2 redox homeostasis through transient but recurring catalase inactivation, which may in part rationalize some deleterious effects observed with this therapeutic agent, as discussed.

Abstract
Plants can produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) to counteract pathogen invasion, and pathogens have also evolved corresponding ROS scavenging strategies to promote infection and pathogenicity. Catalases (CATs) have been found to play pivotal roles in detoxifying H2O2 formed by superoxide anion catalyzed by superoxide dismutases (SODs). However, few studies have addressed H2O2 removing during rust fungi infection of wheat. In this study, we cloned a CAT gene PsCAT1 from Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst), which encodes a monofunctional heme-containing catalase. PsCAT1 exhibited a high degree of tolerance to pH and temperature, and forms high homopolymers.Heterologous complementation assays in Saccharomyces cerevisiae reveal that the signal peptide of PsCAT1 is functional. Overexpression of PsCAT1 enhanced S. cerevisiae resistance to H2O2. Transient expression of PsCAT1 in Nicotiana benthamiana suppressed Bax-induced cell death. Knockdown of PsCAT1 using a host-induced gene silencing (HIGS) system led to the reduced virulence of Pst, which was correlated to H2O2 accumulation in HIGS plants. These results indicate that PsCAT1 acts as an important pathogenicity factor that facilitates Pst infection by scavenging host-derived H2O2.

Abstract
Most trypanosomatid flagellates do not have catalase. In the evolution of this group, the gene encoding catalase has been independently acquired at least three times from three different bacterial groups. Here, we demonstrate that the catalase of Vickermania was obtained by horizontal gene transfer from Gammaproteobacteria, extending the list of known bacterial sources of this gene. Comparative biochemical analyses revealed that the enzymes of V. ingenoplastis, Leptomonas pyrrhocoris, and Blastocrithidia sp., representing the three independent catalase-bearing trypanosomatid lineages, have similar properties, except for the unique cyanide resistance in the catalase of the latter species.

Theoretical and Experimental Considerations for a Rapid and High Throughput Measurement of Catalase In Vitro. Antioxidants (Basel) 2021; 11:antiox11010021.

Abstract
A rapid and high throughput protocol to measure the catalase activity in vitro has been designed. Catalase is an enzyme with unusual kinetic properties because it does not follow the standard Michaelis–Menten model and is inactivated by H2O2. This makes the analysis of the two rate equations of the second-ordered reactions of the kinetic model rather complex. A two-degree polynomial fitting of the experimental data is proposed after transforming the exponential form of the integrated rate equation of the [H2O2] into a polynomial using the Taylor series. The fitting is validated by establishing an experimental linear relationship between the initial rate of the H2O2 decomposition and the protein concentration, regardless of the suicide inactivation that catalase might undergo beyond t > 0. In addition, experimental considerations are taken into account to avoid statistical bias in the analysis of the catalase activity. ANOVA analyses show that the proposed protocol can be utilized to measure the initial rate of the H2O2 decomposition by catalase in 32 samples in triplicates if kept below 8 mM min−1 in the microplate wells. These kinetic and statistical analyses can pave the way for other antioxidant enzyme activity assays in microplate readers at small scale and low cost.

Abstract
Significance: Oxidative stress is a characteristic of many systemic diseases associated with thrombosis. Thiol isomerases are a family of oxidoreductases important in protein folding and are exquisitely sensitive to the redox environment. They are essential for thrombus formation and represent a previously unrecognized layer of control of the thrombotic process. Yet, the mechanisms by which thiol isomerases function in thrombus formation are unknown. Recent Advances: The oxidoreductase activity of thiol isomerases in thrombus formation is controlled by the redox environment via oxidative changes to active site cysteines. Specific alterations can now be detected owing to advances in the chemical biology of oxidative cysteine modifications. Critical Issues: Understanding of the role of thiol isomerases in thrombus formation has focused largely on identifying single disulfide bond modifications in isolated proteins (e.g., αIIbβ3, tissue factor, vitronectin, or glycoprotein Ibα [GPIbα]). An alternative approach is to conceptualize thiol isomerases as effectors in redox signaling pathways that control thrombotic potential by modifying substrate networks. Future Directions: Cysteine-based chemical biology will be employed to study thiol-dependent dynamics mediated by the redox state of thiol isomerases at the systems level. This approach could identify thiol isomerase-dependent modifications of the disulfide landscape that are prothrombotic.

Abstract
Catalases, heme or non-heme, are catalysts that decompose hydrogen peroxide. Among them, non-heme or manganese-catalases have been studied from limited organisms. We report here heterologous production of a manganese-catalase, Cat-IIGt, previously annotated as a hypothetical protein, from a thermophilic bacterium Geobacillus thermopakistaniensis. Recombinant Cat-IIGt, produced as inactive inclusion bodies in Escherichia coli, was solubilized and refolded into a soluble and highly active form. Sequence homology, absorption spectra, resistance to sodium azide inhibition and activation by Mn2+ indicated that it was a manganese-catalase. Metal analysis revealed the presence of ∼2 Mn2+ and ∼2 Ca2+ per subunit of Cat-IIGt. Recombinant Cat-IIGt exhibited highest activity at pH 10.0 and 70°C. The enzyme was highly active with a specific activity of 40,529 μmol min-1 mg-1. The apparent Km and kcat values were 75 mM and 1.5 × 104 s-1 subunit-1, respectively. Recombinant Cat-IIGt was highly thermostable with a half-life of 30 min at 100°C. The structural attributes of Cat-IIGt, including the metal and substrate binding residues, were predicted by homology modeling and molecular docking studies. High activity and thermostability and alkaline nature make Cat-IIGt a potential candidate for textile and paper processing industries.

Abstract
Bacterial wilt caused by the soil-borne plant pathogen Ralstonia solanacearum is a devastating disease worldwide. Upon plant colonization, R. solanacearum replicates massively, causing plant wilting and death; collapsed infected tissues then serve as a source of inoculum. In this work, we show that the plant metabolic pathway mediated by pyruvate decarboxylases (PDCs) contributes to plant tolerance to bacterial wilt disease. Arabidopsis and tomato plants respond to R. solanacearum infection by increasing PDC activity, and plants with deficient PDC activity are more susceptible to bacterial wilt. Treatment with either pyruvic acid or acetic acid (substrate and product of the PDC pathway, respectively) enhances plant tolerance to bacterial wilt disease. An effector protein secreted by R. solanacearum, RipAK, interacts with PDCs and inhibits their oligomerization and enzymatic activity. Collectively, our work reveals a metabolic pathway involved in plant resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses, and a bacterial virulence strategy to promote disease and the completion of the pathogenic life cycle.

Disproportionation of H 2O 2 Mediated by Diiron-Peroxo Complexes as Catalase Mimics. Molecules 2021; 26:molecules26154501.

Abstract
Heme iron and nonheme dimanganese catalases protect biological systems against oxidative damage caused by hydrogen peroxide. Rubrerythrins are ferritine-like nonheme diiron proteins, which are structurally and mechanistically distinct from the heme-type catalase but similar to a dimanganese KatB enzyme. In order to gain more insight into the mechanism of this curious enzyme reaction, non-heme structural and functional models were carried out by the use of mononuclear [FeII(L1-4)(solvent)3](ClO4)2 (1-4) (L1 = 1,3-bis(2-pyridyl-imino)isoindoline, L2 = 1,3-bis(4'-methyl-2-pyridyl-imino)isoindoline, L3 = 1,3-bis(4'-Chloro-2-pyridyl-imino)isoindoline, L4 = 1,3-bis(5'-chloro-2-pyridyl-imino)isoindoline) complexes as catalysts, where the possible reactive intermediates, diiron-perroxo [FeIII2(μ-O)(μ-1,2-O2)(L1-L4)2(Solv)2]2+ (5-8) complexes are known and well-characterized. All the complexes displayed catalase-like activity, which provided clear evidence for the formation of diiron-peroxo species during the catalytic cycle. We also found that the fine-tuning of iron redox states is a critical issue, both the formation rate and the reactivity of the diiron-peroxo species showed linear correlation with the FeIII/FeII redox potentials. Their stability and reactivity towards H2O2 was also investigated and based on kinetic and mechanistic studies a plausible mechanism, including a rate-determining hydrogen atom transfer between the H2O2 and diiron-peroxo species, was proposed. The present results provide one of the first examples of a nonheme diiron-peroxo complex, which shows a catalase-like reaction.

Abstract
Methanobactins (MBs) are small (<1,300-Da) posttranslationally modified copper-binding peptides and represent the extracellular component of a copper acquisition system in some methanotrophs. Interestingly, MBs can bind a range of metal ions, with some being reduced after binding, e.g., Cu2+ reduced to Cu+. Other metal ions, however, are bound but not reduced, e.g., K+. The source of electrons for selective metal ion reduction has been speculated to be water but never empirically shown. Here, using H218O, we show that when MBs from Methylocystis sp. strain SB2 (MB-SB2) and Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b (MB-OB3) were incubated in the presence of either Au3+, Cu2, or Ag+, 18,18O2 and free protons were released. No 18,18O2 production was observed in the presence of either MB-SB2 or MB-OB3b alone, gold alone, copper alone, or silver alone or when K+ or Mo2+ was incubated with MB-SB2. In contrast to MB-OB3b, MB-SB2 binds Fe3+ with an N2S2 coordination and will also reduce Fe3+ to Fe2+. Iron reduction was also found to be coupled to the oxidation of 2H2O and the generation of O2. MB-SB2 will also couple Hg2+, Ni2+, and Co2+ reduction to the oxidation of 2H2O and the generation of O2, but MB-OB3b will not, ostensibly as MB-OB3b binds but does not reduce these metal ions. To determine if the O2 generated during metal ion reduction by MB could be coupled to methane oxidation, 13CH4 oxidation by Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b was monitored under anoxic conditions. The results demonstrate that O2 generation from metal ion reduction by MB-OB3b can support methane oxidation. IMPORTANCE The discovery that MB will couple the oxidation of H2O to metal ion reduction and the release of O2 suggests that methanotrophs expressing MB may be able to maintain their activity under hypoxic/anoxic conditions through the “self-generation” of dioxygen required for the initial oxidation of methane to methanol. Such an ability may be an important factor in enabling methanotrophs to not only colonize the oxic-anoxic interface where methane concentrations are highest but also tolerate significant temporal fluctuations of this interface. Given that genomic surveys often show evidence of aerobic methanotrophs within anoxic zones, the ability to express MB (and thereby generate dioxygen) may be an important parameter in facilitating their ability to remove methane, a potent greenhouse gas, before it enters the atmosphere.

BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA-PROTEINS AND PROTEOMICS 2021; 1869:140662. [PMID: 33887466 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbapap.2021.140662] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2021] [Revised: 04/14/2021] [Accepted: 04/16/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Scytalidium catalase is a homotetramer including heme d in each subunit. Its primary function is the dismutation of H2O2 to water and oxygen, but it is also able to oxidase various small organic compounds including catechol and phenol. The crystal structure of Scytalidium catalase reveals the presence of three linked channels providing access to the exterior like other catalases reported so far. The function of these channels has been extensively studied, revealing the possible routes for substrate flow and product release. In this report, we have focussed on the semi-conserved residue Val228, located near to the vinyl groups of the heme at the opening of the lateral channel. Its replacement with Ala, Ser, Gly, Cys, Phe and Ile were tested. We observed a significant decrease in catalytic efficiency in all mutants with the exception of a remarkable increase in oxidase activity when Val228 was mutated to either Ala, Gly or Ser. The reduced catalytic efficiencies are characterized in terms of the restriction of hydrogen peroxide as electron acceptor in the active centre resulting from the opening of lateral channel inlet by introducing the smaller side chain residues. On the other hand, the increased oxidase activity is explained by allowing the suitable electron donor to approach more closely to the heme. The crystal structures of V228C and V228I were determined at 1.41 and 1.47 Å resolution, respectively. The lateral channels of the V228C and V228I presented a broadly identical chain of arranged waters to that observed for wild-type enzyme.

Abstract
Catalases play a key role in the defense against oxidative stress in bacteria by catalyzing the decomposition of H2O2. In addition, catalases are also involved in multiple cellular processes, such as cell development and differentiation, as well as metabolite production. However, little is known about the abundance, diversity, and distribution of catalases in bacteria. In this study, we systematically surveyed and classified the homologs of three catalase families from 2,634 bacterial genomes. It was found that both of the typical catalase and Mn-catalase families could be divided into distinct groups, while the catalase-peroxidase homologs formed a tight family. The typical catalases are rich in all the analyzed bacterial phyla except Chlorobi, in which the catalase-peroxidases are dominant. Catalase-peroxidases are rich in many phyla, but lacking in Deinococcus-Thermus, Spirochetes, and Firmicutes. Mn-catalases are found mainly in Firmicutes and Deinococcus-Thermus, but are rare in many other phyla. Given the fact that catalases were reported to be involved in secondary metabolite biosynthesis in several Streptomyces strains, the distribution of catalases in the genus Streptomyces was given more attention herein. On average, there are 2.99 typical catalases and 0.99 catalase-peroxidases in each Streptomyces genome, while no Mn-catalases were identified. To understand detailed properties of catalases in Streptomyces, we characterized all the five typical catalases from S. rimosus ATCC 10970, the oxytetracycline-producing strain. The five catalases showed typical catalase activity, but possessed different catalytic properties. Our findings contribute to the more detailed classification of catalases and facilitate further studies about their physiological roles in secondary metabolite biosynthesis and other cellular processes, which might facilitate the yield improvement of valuable secondary metabolites in engineered bacteria.

Abstract
Catalases catalyze the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. Limited reports are available on characterization of manganese-catalases. We describe here molecular cloning and expression in Escherichia coli of a putative manganese-catalase gene from mesophilic bacterium, Bacillus subtilis R5. The gene product, CatBsu, produced as a soluble protein, was purified to apparent homogeneity and biochemically characterized. The absorption spectra and nonsignificant inhibition by sodium azide indicated that it is a manganese-catalase. The protein was in homohexameric form in solution, with a subunit molecular weight of 30 kDa, containing ~2 Mn2+ and ~1 Ca2+ per subunit. CatBsu showed highest activity at pH 8.0 and 55 °C. It was found to be highly active with a specific activity of 25,290 μmol min-1 mg-1 and apparent Km and kcat values of 98 mM and 1.27 × 104 s-1 subunit-1, respectively. Although from a mesophilic source, it exhibited a half-life of 2 h at 80 °C. Furthermore, the active site and metal binding residues in CatBsu were predicted by homology modelling and molecular docking. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first characterization of a manganese-catalase from genus Bacillus.

Abstract
De Novo metalloprotein design assesses the relationship between metal active site architecture and catalytic reactivity. Herein, we use an α-helical scaffold to control the iron coordination geometry when a heme cofactor is allowed to bind to either histidine or cysteine ligands, within a single artificial protein. Consequently, we uncovered a reversible pH-induced switch of the heme axial ligation within this simplified scaffold. Characterization of the specific heme coordination modes was done by using UV/Vis and Electron Paramagnetic Resonance spectroscopies. The penta- or hexa-coordinate thiolate heme (9≤pH≤11) and the penta-coordinate imidazole heme (6≤pH≤8.5) reproduces well the heme ligation in chloroperoxidases or cyt P450 monooxygenases and peroxidases, respectively. The stability of heme coordination upon ferric/ferrous redox cycling is a crucial property of the construct. At basic pHs, the thiolate mini-heme protein can catalyze O2 reduction when adsorbed onto a pyrolytic graphite electrode.

Abstract
Surfactant molecules stimulate amyloid fibrillation and conformational switching in proteins but the mechanisms by which they accomplish these effects are unclear. A cationic gemini surfactant, C16C4C16Br2, with two positively charged heads and two-16C hydrophobic tails induces the amyloid fibrillation of bovine liver catalase (BLC) in vitro at physiological pH. The BLC transformed into amyloid aggregates in the presence of low concentrations (2–150 μM) of C16C4C16Br2 at pH 7.4, as confirmed by the use of several biophysical techniques (Rayleigh light scattering (RLS), intrinsic fluorescence, thioflavin T fluorescence (ThT), far-UV circular dichroism, and transmission electron microscopy). The secondary structure of BLC also changed according to the concentration of C16C4C16Br2: the α-helical structure of BLC decreased in the presence of 2–100 μM of C16C4C16Br2 but at concentrations above 200 μM BLC regained a α-helical structure very similar to the native BLC. In silico molecular docking between BLC and C16C4C16Br2 suggest that the positively charged heads of the surfactant interact with Asp127 through attractive electrostatic interactions. Moreover, a Pi-cation electrostatic interaction and hydrophobic interactions also take place between the tails of the surfactant and BLC. The stability of the BLC–C16C4C16Br2 complex was confirmed by performing a molecular dynamics simulation and evaluating parameters such as root mean square deviation (RMSD), root mean square fluctuation (RMSF), radius of gyration (Rg), and solvent accessible surface area (SASA). Apart from its aggregation inducing properties, the gemini surfactant itself causes toxicity to the cancerous cell (A549): which is confirmed by MTT assay. This work delivers new insight into the effect of cationic gemini surfactants in amyloid aggregation and paves the way to the rational design of new anti-amyloidogenic agents. Surfactant molecules stimulate amyloid fibrillation and conformational switching in proteins but the mechanisms by which they accomplish these effects are unclear.![]()

Abstract
Background Since vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a significant regulator of cancer angiogenesis, it is essential to develop a technology for its sensitive detection. Herein, we sensitized a chemiluminescence (CL) immunoassay through the combination of H2O2-sensitive TGA-CdTe quantum dot (QD) as signal transduction, dextran as a cross-linker to prepare enzyme-labeled antigen and the ultrahigh bioactivity of catalase (CAT) as reporter enzyme. Results Under the optimized experimental conditions, the chemiluminescence enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (CL-ELISA) method can detect VEGF in the excellent linear range of 2–35,000 pg mL−1, with a detection limit (S/N = 3) of 0.5 pg mL−1 which was approximately ten times lower than the commercial colorimetric immunoassay. This proposed method has been successfully applied to the clinical determination of VEGF in the human serum samples, and the results illustrated an excellent correlation with the conventional ELISA method (R2 = 0.997). The suitable recovery rate of the method in the serum ranged from 97 to 107%, with a relative standard deviation of 1.2% to 13.4%. Conclusions The novel immunoassay proposes a highly sensitive, specific, and stable method for very low levels detection of VEGF that can be used in the primary diagnosis of tumors. With the well-designed sensing platform, this approach has a broad potential to be applied for quantitative analysis of numerous disease-related protein biomarkers for which antibodies are available.![]()

Abstract
Proteins containing heme groups perform a variety of important functions in living organisms. The heme groups are involved in catalyzing oxidation/reduction reactions, in electron transfer, and in binding small molecules, like oxygen or nitric oxide. Flavonoids, low molecular weight plant polyphenols, are ubiquitous components of human diet. They are also components of many plant extracts used in herbal medicine as well as of food supplements. Due to their relatively low reduction potential, flavonoids are prone to oxidation. This paper provides a review of redox reactions of various heme proteins, including catalase, some peroxidases, cytochrome P450, cytochrome c, myoglobin, and hemoglobin with flavonoids. Potential biological significance of these reactions is discussed, in particular when flavonoids are delivered to the body at pharmacological doses.

Abstract
A series of divalent manganese complexes [MII(HL1–6)Cl2] with the 1,3-bis(2’-Ar-imino)isoindolines (HLn, n = 1–6, Ar = pyridyl, 4-methylpyridyl, imidazolyl, thiazolyl, benzimidazolyl and N-methylbenzimidazolyl, respectively) including the previously reported ligands (HL1–2, 4–6) and complexes ([MII(HL1,5)Cl2]) have been prepared and characterized by electrochemical and spectroscopic methods. In these complexes, it was possible to control the redox potential of the metal center by varying the aryl substituent on the bis-iminoisoindoline moiety, and investigate its effect in a catalase-like reaction, and oxidative bleaching process in buffered aqueous solution. The kinetics of the dismutation of H2O2 into H2O and O2, and the oxidative degradation of morin by H2O2 were investigated in buffered water, where the reactivity of the catalysts in both systems was markedly influenced by the redox and Lewis acidic properties of the metal centers and the concentration of the bicarbonate ions. Both the catalase-like and bleaching activity of the catalysts showed a linear correlation with the MnIII/MnII redox potentials. The E1/2 spans a 561 mV range from 388 mV (Ar = benzymidazolyl) to 948 mV (Ar = 4-methylpyridyl) vs. the SCE. The amount of bicarbonate is a critical issue for the in situ formation of peroxycarbonate as a versatile oxidant, and its participation in the formation of high valent MnIV = O species.

Abstract
The mechanisms of binary catalyst therapy (BCT) and photodynamic therapy (PDT) are based on the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). This ROS formation results from specific chemical reactions. In BCT, light exposure does not necessarily initiate ROS formation and BCT application is not limited to regions of tissues that are accessible to illumination like photodynamic therapy (PDT). The principle of BCT is electron transition, resulting in the interaction of a transition metal complex (catalyst) and substrate molecule. MnIII- tetraphenylporphyrin chloride (MnClTPP) in combination with an ascorbic acid (AA) has been proposed as an appropriate candidate for cancer treatment regarding the active agents in BCT. The goal of this study was to determine whether MnClTPP in combination with AA would be a promising agent for BCT. The problem of used MnClTPP's, low solubility in water, was solved by MnClTPP loading into PLGA matrix. H2O2 produced during AA decomposition oxidized MnClTPP to high-reactive oxo-MnV species. MnClTPP in presence AA leads to the production of excessive ROS levels in vitro. ROS are mainly substrates of catalase and superoxide dismutase (H2O2 and O2●-). SOD1 and catalase were identified as the key players of the MnClTPP ROS-induced cell defense system. The cytotoxicity of MnClTPP-loaded nanoparticles (NPs) was greatly increased in the presence of specific catalase inhibitor (3-amino-1,2,4-triazole (3AT)) and superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) inhibitor (diethyldithiocarbamate (DDC)). Cell death resulted from the combined activation of caspase-dependent (caspase 3/9 system) and independent pathways, namely the AIF translocation to nuclei. Preliminary acute toxicity and in vivo anticancer studies have been revealed the safe and potent anticancer effect of PLGA-entrapped MnClTPP in combination with AA. The findings indicate that MnClTPP-loaded PLGA NPs are promising agents for BCT.

Stability and Catalase-Like Activity of a Mononuclear Non-Heme Oxoiron(IV) Complex in Aqueous Solution. Molecules 2019; 24:molecules24183236. [PMID: 31491998 PMCID: PMC6766873 DOI: 10.3390/molecules24183236] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/27/2019] [Revised: 09/04/2019] [Accepted: 09/05/2019] [Indexed: 01/09/2023] Open
Abstract
Heme-type catalase is a class of oxidoreductase enzymes responsible for the biological defense against oxidative damage of cellular components caused by hydrogen peroxide, where metal-oxo species are proposed as reactive intermediates. To get more insight into the mechanism of this curious reaction a non-heme structural and functional model was carried out by the use of a mononuclear complex [FeII(N4Py*)(CH3CN)](CF3SO3)2 (N4Py* = N,N-bis(2-pyridylmethyl)- 1,2-di(2-pyridyl)ethylamine) as a catalyst, where the possible reactive intermediates, high-valent FeIV=O and FeIII–OOH are known and spectroscopically well characterized. The kinetics of the dismutation of H2O2 into O2 and H2O was investigated in buffered water, where the reactivity of the catalyst was markedly influenced by the pH, and it revealed Michaelis–Menten behavior with KM = 1.39 M, kcat = 33 s−1 and k2(kcat/KM) = 23.9 M−1s−1 at pH 9.5. A mononuclear [(N4Py)FeIV=O]2+ as a possible intermediate was also prepared, and the pH dependence of its stability and reactivity in aqueous solution against H2O2 was also investigated. Based on detailed kinetic, and mechanistic studies (pH dependence, solvent isotope effect (SIE) of 6.2 and the saturation kinetics for the initial rates versus the H2O2 concentration with KM = 18 mM) lead to the conclusion that the rate-determining step in these reactions above involves hydrogen-atom transfer between the iron-bound substrate and the Fe(IV)-oxo species.

Abstract
Bacteria are the most diverse and numerous organisms on the planet, inhabiting environments from the deep subsurface to particles in clouds. Across this range of conditions, bacteria have evolved a diverse suite of enzymes to mitigate cellular damage from reactive oxygen species (ROS). Here, we review the diversity and distribution of ROS enzymatic defense mechanisms across the domain Bacteria, using both peer-reviewed literature and publicly available genome databases. We describe the specific strategies used by well-characterized organisms in order to highlight differences in oxidative stress responses between aerobic, facultatively anaerobic, and anaerobic lifestyles. We present evidence from genome minimization experiments to suggest that ROS defenses are obligately required for life. This review clarifies the variability in ROS defenses across Bacteria, including the novel diversity found in currently uncharacterized Candidate Phyla.

Abstract
Catalases, heme enzymes which catalyze decomposition of hydrogen peroxide to water and molecular oxygen, are important members of the antioxidant defense system of cells of almost all aerobic organisms. However, recent studies suggest that catalase may be involved in various other processes in the cell. The paper provides a review of reactions of catalases with their main substrate, hydrogen peroxide, and with oxidizing species such as hydroxyl radical, superoxide, nitric oxide, peroxynitrite, hypochlorous acid, and singlet oxygen. A number of these individuals are formed under oxidative eustress (good stress) as well as distress (bad stress), while others only under conditions of oxidative distress. Potential biological significance of the reactions of mammalian as well as bacterial catalases with oxidizing species is discussed. The majority of these reactions inhibit catalase. Authors emphasize that catalase inhibition, which may lead to significant increase of the local concentration of hydrogen peroxide, may be detrimental to the neighboring tissues, but in some pathological states (e.g. the defense directed against pathogenic bacteria rich in catalase, or induction of apoptosis of cancer cells which possess membrane-associated catalase) it may be beneficial for the host organism.

Abstract
Conventional drug delivery systems face several issues in medical applications, such as cyto/genotoxicity and off-targeting. These issues are particularly significant for cancer therapeutics because many of the currently used systems are toxic in their free form. Self-propelled autonomous micro/nanomachines offer promising alternative drug delivery systems based on high cargo loading, fast autonomous movement, precise targeting and the on-demand release of therapeutics in vivo. With this unique set of properties, it is not surprising that they are receiving considerable research attention. However, much less is reported about the drawbacks that hinder their systemic in vivo application. In this review, a biomedical perspective is used to assess micro/nanomotor-based anticancer drug delivery systems reported to date. Advantages along with present issues are highlighted and recommendations which need to be considered to develop an effective biocompatible micro/nanomotor-based delivery system for cancer therapy are discussed.
