Function
AMNB_PSESP Component of the 2-aminophenol 1,6-dioxygenase complex that catalyzes the ring fission of 2-aminophenol to produce 2-aminomuconic 6-semialdehyde. AmnB seems to be the catalytic subunit of the complex. The enzyme is also active toward 2-amino-p-cresol, 6-amino-m-cresol, 2-amino-m-cresol, 2-amino-4,5-dimethylphenol, 2-amino-4-chlorophenol, and catechol.[1]
