Protocatechuate 3,4-dioxygenase is a dioxygenase. Protocatechuate 3,4-dioxygenase belongs to the non-heme iron dioxygenase class. Protocatechuate 3,4-dioxygenase catalyzes the cleavage of the aromatic ring of 3,4-dihydroxybenzoate, attaching two atoms of molecular oxygen to the compound to generate beta-carboxy-cis,cis-muconate. Protocatechuate 3,4-dioxygenase is a key enzyme in the beta-ketoadipic acid pathway. It is found in marine bacteria associated with Roseobacter. Protocatechuate 3,4-dioxygenase can be isolated from Pseudomonas aeruginosa[1][2][3].
