Catalase (<i>CAT</i>, OMIM: 115500) is an endogenous antioxidant enzyme and genetic variations in the regulatory regions of the <i>CAT</i> gene may alter the CAT enzyme activity and subsequently may alter the risk of oxidative stress related disease. In this study, potential influence(s) of the A-21T (rs7943316) and C-262T (rs1001179) genetic polymorphisms in the <i>CAT</i> promoter region, using the ALGGEN-PROMO.v8.3 online software were analyzed. Our findings show that the A allele at the -21 ...[more]
