Protein
Maleylacetate reductase 2
Organism
Cupriavidus necator (strain JMP 134 / LMG 1197)
Function
Plays a major role in the degradation of chloroaromatic compounds by channeling maleylacetate and some of its substituted derivatives into the 3-oxoadipate pathway. This enzyme converts maleylacetate and 2-chloromaleylacetate with similar efficiencies. NADH is preferred to NADPH as the cosubstrate.
Similarity
Belongs to the iron-containing alcohol dehydrogenase family.
