In enzymology, a quinoline 2-oxidoreductase (EC 1.3.99.17) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
- quinoline + acceptor + H2O quinolin-1(2H)-one + reduced acceptor
The 3 substrates of this enzyme are quinoline, acceptor, and H2O, whereas its two products are quinolin-1(2H)-one and reduced acceptor.
This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-CH group of donor with other acceptors. The systematic name of this enzyme class is quinoline:acceptor 2-oxidoreductase (hydroxylating).
