Catalase and/or Peroxiredoxins
Peroxisomes
Hydrogen peroxide is a very powerful oxidizing agent. The cell walls of the yeast are made up of organic compounds that can be oxidized by the H2O2. It destroys the cell walls and kills the yeast in the process.
The peroxizome contains catalase, an enzyme which facilitates the decomposition of H2O2 to H2O and O.
It is the oxygen responsible for the killing of germs. When hydrogen peroxide is applied to a surface, it reacts quickly and then breaks down into water hydrogen. At the same time, free oxygen radicals are released; these create oxidation, a chemical process in which oxygen combines with another substance to break down or change the function of the molecules. Through oxidation, the bacteria decomposes, rendering it harmless.
The answer to your question is: Peroxisomes.In a cell there there may be two types of digestive organelles, lysosomes or peroxisomes. Lysosomes are the normal digestive organelle found in most cells that are most common in intracellular digestion. Peroxisomes, on the other hand, combine enzymes to break down particles into H2O2, better known as hydrogen peroxide.
Oxidative stress was induced by adding hydrogen peroxide at 0.25 mM for 2, blotting in the three cell lines after hydrogen peroxide stimulation.
the proliferators are what the peroxisomes use to help break down the hydrogen peroxide. They do this because hydrogen peroxide is harmuful towards the cell.

Peroxisomes
Catalase is an enzyme that speeds up the reaction.
Peroxisomes contain enzymes which metabolize hydrogen peroxide within the cell, hence the name.

Fatty acid breakdown and, more importantly, the neutralization of hydrogen peroxide.
Specifically peroxidase, the enzyme that resides in the peroxisomes.
The peroxisome
yes, H2O2 passes through cell membrane through passive transport.
