Seeking general principles in the design of defense systems against hydrogen peroxide

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), are now known to play critical roles in signal transduction and in coordinating key cellular processes. However, these species can also covalently damage macromolecules and originate other even more deleterious compounds. At the core of...
