In enzymology, indole-3-acetaldehyde oxidase (EC 1.2.3.7) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
The three substrates of this enzyme are indole-3-acetaldehyde, water, and oxygen. Its products are indole-3-aceticacid and hydrogen peroxide. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]
This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the aldehyde or oxo group of donor with oxygen as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is (indol-3-yl)acetaldehyde:oxygen oxidoreductase. Other names in common use include indoleacetaldehyde oxidase, IAAld oxidase, AO1, and indole-3-acetaldehyde:oxygen oxidoreductase. This enzyme participates in tryptophan metabolism. It has 3 cofactors: flavin adenine dinucleotide, heme, and molybdenum. [6] [7] [8]
