Caffeate 34-dioxygenase (EC 1.13.11.22) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction34-dihydroxy-trans-cinnamate + O2 3-(2-carboxyethenyl)-ciscis-muconateThus the two substrates of this enzyme are 34-dihydroxy-trans-cinnamate (caffeic acid) and oxygen whereas its product is 3-(2-carboxyethenyl)-ciscis-muconate.This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases specifically those acting on single donors with O2 as oxidant and incorporation of two atoms of oxygen into the substrate (oxygenases).
