IUBMB Enzyme Nomenclature

EC 1.14.13.172

Accepted name: salicylate 5-hydroxylase

Reaction: salicylate + NADH + H+ + O2 = 2,5-dihydroxybenzoate + NAD+ + H2O

Glossary: 2,5-dihydroxybenzoate = gentisate

Other name(s): nagG (gene name); nagH (gene name)

Systematic name: salicylate,NADH:oxygen oxidoreductase (5-hydroxylating)

Comments: This enzyme, which was characterized from the bacterium Ralstonia sp. U2, comprises a multicomponent system, containing a reductase that is an iron-sulfur flavoprotein (FAD; EC 1.18.1.7, ferredoxin—NAD(P)+ reductase), an iron-sulfur oxygenase, and ferredoxin.
