EC 1.2.1.85 Details
EC number
1.2.1.85
Accepted name
2-hydroxymuconate-6-semialdehyde dehydrogenase
Reaction
2-hydroxymuconate-6-semialdehyde + NAD+ + H2O = (2Z,4E)-2-hydroxyhexa-2,4-dienedioate + NADH + 2 H+
Other name(s)
xylG (gene name), praB (gene name)
Systematic name
2-hydroxymuconate-6-semialdehyde:NAD+ oxidoreductase
Comment
This substrate for this enzyme is formed by meta ring cleavage of catechol (EC 1.13.11.2, catechol 2,3-dioxygenase), and is an intermediate in the bacterial degradation of several aromatic compounds. Has lower activity with benzaldehyde [1]. Activity with NAD+ is more than 10-fold higher than with NADP+ [3]. cf. EC 1.2.1.32, aminomuconate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase.
