ENZYME entry: EC 1.2.3.7

Accepted Name
Indole-3-acetaldehyde oxidase.
Alternative Name(s)
IAA oxidase.
IAAld oxidase.
Indoleacetaldehyde oxidase.
Reaction catalysed
(Indol-3-yl)acetaldehyde + H(2)O + O(2) <=> (indol-3-yl)acetate + H(2)O(2)
Cofactor(s)
FAD; Heme; Mo cation.
Comment(s)
  • Isoform of EC 1.2.3.1.
  • Has a preference for aldehydes having an indole-ring structure as substrate.
  • May play a role in plant hormone biosynthesis as its activity is higher in the auxin-overproducing mutant, super-root1, than in wild- type Arabidopsis thaliana.
  • While (indol-3-yl)acetaldehyde is the preferred substrate, it also oxidizes indole-3-carbaldehyde and acetaldehyde, but more slowly.
