Other name(s): 2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoline 5,6-dioxygenase; quinolin-2-ol 5,6-dioxygenase; quinolin-2(1H)-one 5,6-dioxygenase

Systematic name: quinolin-2-ol,NADH:oxygen oxidoreductase (5,6-hydroxylating)

Comments: 3-methylquinolin-2-ol, quinolin-8-ol and quinolin-2,8-diol are also substrates. Quinolin-2-ols exist largely as their quinolin-2(1H)-one tautomers
