FADH(2)-dependent monooxygenase TftD

UniProtKB accession:  O87009

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Oxygenase component of a two-component system that degrades 2,4,5-trichlorophenol. Uses FADH(2) supplied by TftC to oxidize 2,4,5-trichlorophenol (2,4,5-TCP) to 2,5-dichloro-p-benzoquinone, which is chemically reduced to 2,5-dichloro-p-hydroquinone (2,5-DiCHQ). Then, TftD oxidizes the latter to 5-chloro-2-hydroxy-p-benzoquinone.
