Abstract:Agricultural intensification has led to significant increases in production, but the overuse of pesticides and associated hazards pose threats to biodiversity and ecological functions. Catalase (CAT), a key antioxidant enzyme, plays a crucial role in alleviating oxidative stress by directly interacting with toxins. In this study, we identified three CAT isoforms in Tenebrio molitor (TmCAT‐iso1, TmCAT‐iso2 and TmCAT‐iso3). These CATs possess a CAT domain, tetramer interface sites and a heme‐binding pocket. We e… Show more
