Catalases (CAT) and superoxide dismutases (SOD) represent two main groups of enzymatic antioxidants that are present in almost all aerobic organisms and even in certain anaerobes. They are closely interconnected in the catabolism of reactive oxygen species because one product of SOD reaction (hydrog...
