MeSH Heading: Catechol 2,3-Dioxygenase
Tree Number(s): D08.811.682.690.416.305
Unique ID: D050557
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D050557
Scope Note: Catalyzes the oxidation of catechol to 2-hydroxymuconate semialdehyde in the carbazole and BENZOATE degradation via HYDROXYLATION pathways. It also catalyzes the conversion of 3-methylcatechol to cis, cis-2-hydroxy-6-oxohept-2,4-dienoate in the TOLUENE and XYLENE degradation pathway. This enzyme was formerly characterized as EC 1.13.1.2.
Entry Term(s): 3-Sulfocatechol 2,3-Dioxygenase; Catechol-2,3-Dioxygenase; Metapyrocatechase; Pyrocatechol-2,3-Oxygenase
