Comments [?]

Function Involved in the catabolism of homogentisate (2,5-dihydroxyphenylacetate or 2,5-OH-PhAc), a central intermediate in the degradation of phenylalanine and tyrosine. Catalyzes the oxidative ring cleavage of the aromatic ring of homogentisate to yield maleylacetoacetate.
Catalytic activity RHEA:15449: homogentisate + O2 = 4-maleylacetoacetate + H(+)
EC 1.13.11.5
Cofactor Fe cation
Pathway Amino-acid degradation; L-phenylalanine degradation; acetoacetate and fumarate from L-phenylalanine: step 4/6.
Subunit Hexamer; dimer of trimers.
Similarity Belongs to the homogentisate dioxygenase family.
