EC 1.10.3.2                 Enzyme                                 

Name laccase;
urishiol oxidase;
urushiol oxidase;
p-diphenol oxidase
Class Oxidoreductases;
Acting on diphenols and related substances as donors;
With oxygen as acceptor
BRITE hierarchy
Sysname benzenediol:oxygen oxidoreductase
Reaction(IUBMB) 4 benzenediol + O2 = 4 benzosemiquinone + 2 H2O [RN:R00083]
Reaction(KEGG) R00083
Show
Substrate benzenediol [CPD:C01785];
O2 [CPD:C00007]
Product benzosemiquinone [CPD:C05309];
H2O [CPD:C00001]
Cofactor Copper [CPD:C00070]
Comment A group of multi-copper proteins of low specificity acting on both
o- and p-quinols, and often acting also on aminophenols and
phenylenediamine. The semiquinone may react further either
enzymically or non-enzymically.
