EC 3.7.1.13

Accepted name: 2-hydroxy-6-oxo-6-(2-aminophenyl)hexa-2,4-dienoate hydrolase

Reaction: (2E,4E)-6-(2-aminophenyl)-2-hydroxy-6-oxohexa-2,4-dienoate + H2O = anthranilate + (2E)-2-hydroxypenta-2,4-dienoate

Other name(s): CarC

Systematic name: (2E,4E)-6-(2-aminophenyl)-2-hydroxy-6-oxohexa-2,4-dienoate acylhydrolase

Comments: This enzyme catalyses the third step in the aerobic degradation pathway of carbazole. The effect of the presence of an amino group or hydroxyl group at the 2'-position of the substrate is small. The enzyme has no cofactor requirement [2].
