| Accepted Name |
| Hydroxyquinol 1,2-dioxygenase.
|
| Reaction catalysed |
| Benzene-1,2,4-triol + O(2) <=> 3-hydroxy-cis,cis-muconate |
| Cofactor(s) |
| Iron.
|
| Comment(s) |
- The product isomerizes to 2-maleylacetate (cis-hexenedioate).
- Highly specific; catechol and pyrogallol are acted on at less than 1%
of the rate at which hydroxyquinol is oxidized.
