homogentisate dioxygenase family

DESCRIPTION

Also known as HGD_PSEPK, hmgA. 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 ar omatic ring of 2, 5-dihydroxyphenylacetate to yield maleylacetoacetate. Hexamer; dimer of trimers.
