2,4-Dichlorobenzoyl-CoA reductase

In enzymology, a 2,4-dichlorobenzoyl-CoA reductase (EC 1.3.1.63) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction The 3 substrates of this enzyme are 4-chlorobenzoyl-CoA, NADP+, and HCl, whereas its 3 products are 2,4-dichlorobenzoyl-CoA (the thioester of 2,4-dichlorobenzoic acid), NADPH, and H+.

This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-CH group of donor with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor.

The systematic name of this enzyme class is 4-chlorobenzoyl-CoA:NADP+ oxidoreductase (halogenating).

This enzyme participates in degradation of 2,4-dichlorobenzoate.
