| FUNCTION |
Part of the multicomponent 3-phenylpropionate dioxygenase, that converts 3-phenylpropionic acid (PP) and cinnamic acid (CI) into 3-phenylpropionate-dihydrodiol (PP-dihydrodiol) and cinnamic acid-dihydrodiol (CI-dihydrodiol), respectively (By similarity). |
| CATALYTIC ACTIVITY |
Reduced ferredoxin + NAD(+) = oxidized ferredoxin + NADH. |
| COFACTOR |
FAD (By similarity). |
| PATHWAY |
Aromatic compound metabolism; 3-phenylpropanoate degradation. |
| SUBUNIT |
This dioxygenase system consists of four proteins: the two subunits of the hydroxylase component (HcaE and HcaF), a ferredoxin (HcaC) and a ferredoxin reductase (HcaD) (By similarity). |
| SIMILARITY |
Belongs to the bacterial ring-hydroxylating dioxygenase ferredoxin reductase family. |
