EC 1.21.1.2

Accepted name: 2,4-dichlorobenzoyl-CoA reductase

Reaction: 4-chlorobenzoyl-CoA + NADP+ + chloride = 2,4-dichlorobenzoyl-CoA + NADPH + H+

Systematic name: 4-chlorobenzoyl-CoA:NADP+ oxidoreductase (halogenating)

Comments: The enzyme, characterized from Corynebacterium strains able to grow on 2,4-dichlorobenzoate, forms part of the 2,4-dichlorobenzoate degradation pathway.
