Reaction: benzylmalonyl-CoA + O2 = (E)-cinnamoyl-CoA + CO2 + H2O2
Other name(s): iaaF (gene name)
Systematic name: benzylmalonyl-CoA:oxygen oxidoreductase (decarboxylating)
Comments: The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Aromatoleum aromaticum, is involved in degradation of (indol-3-yl)acetate, where it is believed to function on (2-aminobenzyl)malonyl-CoA.
