(R)-phenoxypropionate/alpha-ketoglutarate-dioxygenase

UniProtKB accession:  Q8KSC8

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Involved in the degradation of the phenoxypropionate herbicides. Catalyzes the enantiospecific cleavage of the ether bond in the herbicid R-dichlorprop ((R)-2-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)propionate)(R-2,4-DP) and R-mecoprop ((R)-2-(4-chloro-2-methylphenoxy)propionate)(R-2,4-MCPP). It can also accept (RS)-4-chlorophenoxypropanoate, however it can only accept 2-oxoglutarate as oxygen acceptor.
