EC 1.13.11.48

Accepted name: 3-hydroxy-2-methylquinolin-4-one 2,4-dioxygenase

Reaction: 3-hydroxy-2-methyl-1H-quinolin-4-one + O2 = N-acetylanthranilate + CO

Other name(s): (1H)-3-hydroxy-4-oxoquinaldine 2,4-dioxygenase

Systematic name: 3-hydroxy-2-methyl-1H-quinolin-4-one 2,4-dioxygenase (CO-forming)

Comments: Does not contain a metal centre or organic cofactor. Fission of two C-C bonds: 2,4-dioxygenolytic cleavage with concomitant release of carbon monoxide. The enzyme from Arthrobacter sp. can also act on 3-hydroxy-4-oxoquinoline, forming N-formylanthranilate and CO (cf. EC 1.13.11.47, 3-hydroxy-4-oxoquinoline 2,4-dioxygenase), but more slowly.
