With oxygen as acceptor
 |
| Sysname |
benzenediol:oxygen oxidoreductase |
| Reaction(IUBMB) |
4 benzenediol + O2 = 4 benzosemiquinone + 2 H2O [RN:R00083] |
| Reaction(KEGG) |
R00083
 |
| 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. |
