EC_number1.14.13.166

4-nitrocatechol 4-monooxygenase () is an enzyme with systematic name 4-nitrocatechol,NAD(P)H:oxygen 4-oxidoreductase (4-hydroxylating, nitrite-forming). This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction:

: 4-nitrocatechol + NAD(P)H + H+ + O2 \rightleftharpoons 2-hydroxy-1,4-benzoquinone + nitrite + NAD(P) + H2O

4-nitrocatechol 4-monooxygenase contains flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD).
