EC 1.11.1.21     
Accepted name: catalase-peroxidase
Reaction: (1) donor + H2O2 = oxidized donor + 2 H2O
(2) 2 H2O2 = O2 + 2 H2O
Other name(s): katG (gene name)
Systematic name: donor:hydrogen-peroxide oxidoreductase
Comments: Differs from EC 1.11.1.7, peroxidase in having a relatively high catalase (EC 1.11.1.6) activity with H2O2 as donor, releasing O2; both activities use the same heme active site. In Mycobacterium tuberculosis it is responsible for activation of the commonly used antitubercular drug, isoniazid.
