DE   4-nitrocatechol 4-monooxygenase.
CA   (1) 4-nitrocatechol + NADPH + O2 = 2-hydroxy-1,4-benzoquinone + H2O +
CA   NADP(+) + nitrite.
CA   (2) 4-nitrocatechol + NADH + O2 = 2-hydroxy-1,4-benzoquinone + H2O +
CA   NAD(+) + nitrite.
CC   -!- The enzyme catalyzes the oxidation of 4-nitrocatechol with the
CC       concomitant removal of the nitro group as nitrite.
CC   -!- Forms a two-component system with a flavoprotein reductase.
CC   -!- The enzymes from the bacteria Lysinibacillus sphaericus JS905 and
CC       Rhodococcus sp. strain PN1 were shown to also catalyze EC 1.14.13.29,
CC       while the enzyme from Pseudomonas sp. WBC-3 was shown to also
CC       catalyze EC 1.14.13.167.
