In enzymology an anthranilate 3-monooxygenase (EC 1.14.16.3) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionanthranilate + tetrahydrobiopterin + O2 3-hydroxyanthranilate + dihydrobiopterin + H2OThe 3 substrates of this enzyme are anthranilate tetrahydrobiopterin and O2 whereas its 3 products are 3-hydroxyanthranilate dihydrobiopterin 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.
