| UniProt functional annotation for Q5SJP8 | |||
| UniProt code: Q5SJP8. |
| Organism: | Thermus thermophilus (strain ATCC 27634 / DSM 579 / HB8). | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Deinococcus-Thermus; Deinococci; Thermales; Thermaceae; Thermus. | |
| Function: | Utilizes FADH(2) supplied by HpaC, to catalyze the hydroxylation of 4-hydroxyphenylacetic acid, leading to the production of 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DHPA). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17804419}. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=4-hydroxyphenylacetate + FADH2 + O2 = 3,4- dihydroxyphenylacetate + FAD + H(+) + H2O; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:30595, ChEBI:CHEBI:15377, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:15379, ChEBI:CHEBI:17612, ChEBI:CHEBI:48999, ChEBI:CHEBI:57692, ChEBI:CHEBI:58307; EC=1.14.14.9; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:17804419}; | |
| Pathway: | Aromatic compound metabolism; 4-hydroxyphenylacetate degradation; pyruvate and succinate semialdehyde from 4- hydroxyphenylacetate: step 1/7. | |
| Subunit: | Homotetramer consisting of a dimer of dimers. 4-HPA 3- monooxygenase consists of a reductase component HpaC and an oxygenase component HpaB. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17804419}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the FADH(2)-utilizing monooxygenase family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
