Salicylate decarboxylase

UniProtKB accession:  P0CT50

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Reversibly catalyzes the regioselective carboxylation of phenol to form salicylic acid. Involved in a pathway for the degradation of salicylate via phenol. Also catalyzes the decarboxylation of beta-resorcylic acid (2,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid) into resorcinol (1,3-dihydroxybenzene), gamma-resorcylic acid (2,6-dihydroxybenzoic acid) into resorcinol, 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid into catechol (1,2-dihydroxybenzene), and 4-aminosalicylic acid into 3-aminophenol.
