In enzymology a 3-hydroxybenzoate 4-monooxygenase (EC 1.14.13.23) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction3-hydroxybenzoate + NADPH + H+ + O2 34-dihydroxybenzoate + NADP+ + H2OThe 4 substrates of this enzyme are 3-hydroxybenzoate NADPH H+ and O2 whereas its 3 products are 34-dihydroxybenzoate NADP+ and H2O.This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases specifically those acting on paired donors with O2 as oxidant and incorporation or reduction of oxygen.
