ENZYME entry: EC 1.17.3.4

PURL: https://purl.expasy.org/enzyme/EC/1.17.3.4
Accepted Name
juglone 3-hydroxylase
Alternative Name(s)
naphthoquinone hydroxylase
Reaction catalysed
2 juglone + O2 = 2 3,5-dihydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone + 2 H(+)
Comment(s)
  • Even though oxygen is consumed, molecular oxygen is not incorporated into the product.
  • Catalysis starts by incorporation of an oxygen atom from a water molecule into the substrate.
  • The naphthalene-1,2,4,8-tetrol intermediate is then oxidized by molecular oxygen, which is reduced to water.
  • Also acts on 1,4-naphthoquinone, naphthazarin and 2-chloro-1,4- naphthoquinone.
  • Formerly EC 1.14.99.27.
