It is a very important enzyme in protecting the cell from oxidative damage by reactive oxygen species (ROS). Likewise, catalase has one of the highest turnover numbers of all enzymes; one catalase molecule can convert millions of hydrogen peroxide molecules to water and oxygen each second.

Hey mate here's your answer
For example, in liver cells the toxic chemical hydrogen peroxide must be broken downinto the harmless products, water and oxygen. If this reaction happens too slowly then hydrogen peroxide canbuild up and poison the cell. ... Liver cells produce the enzymecatalase to speed up thebreakdown of hydrogen peroxide.
