Enzyme name Naphthalene 1,2-dioxygenase
Description Plays a role as an electron transfer component for both salicylate 5-hydroxylase (S5H) and naphthalene 1,2-dioxygenase (NDO) systems, by transferring electrons from NAD(P)H to the oxygenase component via the ferredoxin NagAb
Synonyms nahA
nahAabcd
NADH-ferredoxin(NAP) reductase
Degradation pathway Polychlorinated naphthalenes biodegradation
Reaction catalyzed by enzyme 2 reduced [2Fe-2S] ferredoxin + NAD(P)(+) + H(+) <=> 2 oxidized [2Fe-2S] ferredoxin + NAD(P)H
Enzyme class Oxidoreductases
