Descriptor Spanish: Catecol 2,3-Dioxigenasa
Descriptor catecol 2,3-dioxigenasa
Scope note: Cataliza la oxidación del catecol a 2-hidroximuconato semialdehído en la degradación del CARBAZOL y BENZOATO vía HIDROXILACIÓN. También cataliza la conversión de 3-metilcatecol a cis, cis-2-hidroxi-6-oxohepta-2,4-dienoato en la vía de degradación del TOLUENO y XILENO. Esta enzima ha sido anteriormente caracterizada como EC 1.13.1.2.
