2-(3,4-dihydroxybenzoyloxy)-4,6-dihydroxybenzoic acid

The two substrates of this enzyme are quercetin and oxygen. Its products are 2-(3,4-dihydroxybenzoyloxy)-4,6-dihydroxybenzoic acid and carbon monoxide.[1][2][3]

This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on single donors with O2 as oxidant and incorporation of two atoms of oxygen into the substrate (oxygenases). The oxygen incorporated need not be derived from O2. The systematic name of this enzyme class is quercetin:oxygen 2,3-oxidoreductase (decyclizing). Other names in common use include quercetinase and flavonol 2,4-oxygenase. It has two cofactors: iron and copper.[4]
