Absence of microsomal lipid peroxidation in acatalasemic mice.
Catalase (E.C. 1.11.1.6) activity and NADPH-dependent lipid peroxidation have been measured in liver microsomes from normal and acatalasemic mice. The absence of lipid peroxidation in acatalatic microsomes is not restituted by exogenous catalase as is microsomal methanol oxidation nor is it inhibited by sodium azide, thus suggesting an additional abnormality in these mice.
