4-Nitrophenol 4-monooxygenase

4-nitrophenol 4-monooxygenase (, pnpA (gene), pdcA (gene)) is an enzyme with systematic name 4-nitrophenol,NAD(P)H:oxygen 4-oxidoreductase (4-hydroxylating, nitrite-forming). This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

The four substrates of this enzyme are 4-nitrophenol, reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH), oxygen, and a proton. Its products are 1,4-benzoquinone, oxidised NADP<sup>+</sup>, water, and nitrous acid. It is a flavoprotein that uses flavin adenine dinucleotide as a cofactor.
