Peroxisomes- Definition, Structure, Functions and Diagram

  • Convert toxic hydrogen peroxide into harmless H2O and O2.
  • Present in photosynthetic cells of higher plants and non-photosynthetic cells in gymnosperm, pteridophytes.
  • Helps in photorespiration.

Involved enzymes: Catalyse, Glycollate oxidase, glutamate, urate oxidase, etc.
