The Bifunctional Catalase-Phenol Oxidase of Mycothermus Thermophilum (MtCATPO) Increases the Antioxidant Capacities of its Ortho-Diphenolic Substrates and of Green and Black Tea Extracts

Catalase from the thermophilic fungus Mycothermus thermophilus is a bifunctional enzyme with a secondary phenol oxidase activity (CATPO). MtCATPO catalyses the oxidation of catechol, chlorogenic acid, caffeic acid and (+)-catechin to yield mainly dimers, and higher molecular weight oligomers and pol...
