In enzymology, a maleylacetate reductase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
3-oxoadipate + NAD(P)+
\rightleftharpoons
The 3 substrates of this enzyme are 3-oxoadipate, NAD+, and NADP+, whereas its 4 products are 2-maleylacetate, NADH, 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 3-oxoadipate:NAD(P)+ oxidoreductase. This enzyme is also called maleolylacetate reductase. This enzyme participates in 3 metabolic pathways: gamma-hexachlorocyclohexane degradation, benzoate degradation via hydroxylation, and 1,4-dichlorobenzene degradation.
