The key role of catechol oxidase in enzymatic browning makes it a common target for inhibition. While a number of inhibitory strategies exist such as high temperature treatments(70-90 °C) to eliminate catechol oxidase catalytic activity, [6] a popular strategy is decreasing the pH with citric acid. Catechol oxidase is more catalytically active ...
Catechol: Resorcinol: Hydroquinone: IUPAC name benzene-1,2-diol benzene-1,3-diol benzene-1,4-diol Other names pyrocatechol 1,2-dihydroxybenzene
Although rarely encountered, the officially "preferred IUPAC name" (PIN) of catechol is benzene-1,2-diol. [25] The trivial name pyrocatechol is a retained IUPAC name, according to the 1993 Recommendations for the Nomenclature of Organic Chemistry. [26] [27]
Catechol 2,3-dioxygenase (EC 1.13.11.2, 2,3-pyrocatechase, ... pyrocatechol 2,3-dioxygenase) is an enzyme with systematic name catechol:oxygen 2,3-oxidoreductase ...
Sarcosine oxidase EC 1.5.3.1; Dihydrobenzophenanthridine oxidase EC 1.5.3.12; Category:EC 1.5.4 (with a disulfide as acceptor) Category:EC 1.5.5 (with a quinone or similar compound as acceptor) Category:EC 1.5.7 (with an iron–sulfur protein as acceptor) Category:EC 1.5.8 (with a flavin as acceptor) Category:EC 1.5.99 (with other acceptors)
To avoid long and tedious names in normal communication, the official IUPAC naming recommendations are not always followed in practice, except when it is necessary to give an unambiguous and absolute definition to a compound. IUPAC names can sometimes be simpler than older names, as with ethanol, instead of ethyl alcohol. For relatively simple ...
IUPAC Nomenclature ensures that each compound (and its various isomers) have only one formally accepted name known as the systematic IUPAC name. However, some compounds may have alternative names that are also accepted, known as the preferred IUPAC name which is generally taken from the common name of that compound.
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are catechol and O 2, whereas its two products are [[dibenzo[1,4]dioxin-2,3-dione]] and H 2 O. This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-OH group of donor with oxygen as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is catechol:oxygen oxidoreductase ...
