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, 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 2,4-dichlorobenzoate degradation.
