What enzyme is present in liver and potatoes?

Catalase is the most well known enzyme common to both liver and potato, but there are others enzymes that can be found in potato. Oxidase and peroxidase are the other enzymes that can be found in potato. Oxidases in potato includes tyrosinase, cathecol oxidase and cytochrome oxidase. Peroxidase have the same function as with oxidase but they need a co-factor in order to complete its required action. The co-factor phenol oxidase is found abundant in potatoes. Hence, it will have a positive reaction once a substrate will be added indicating the presence of peroxidase in potatoes.
