EC 1.14.13.235     
Accepted name: indole-3-acetate monooxygenase
Reaction: (indol-3-yl)acetate + NADH + H+ + O2 = (2-hydroxy-1H-indol-3-yl)acetate + NAD+ + H2O
Glossary: (indol-3-yl)acetate =(1H-indol-3-yl)acetate = indole-3-acetate
Other name(s): iacA (gene name)
Systematic name: (indol-3-yl)acetate,NADH:oxygen oxidoreductase (2-hydroxylating)
Comments: The enzyme, characterized from Pseudomonas putida strains, catalyses the first step in a pathway for degradation of the plant hormone indole-3-acetate. When acting on indole, the enzyme forms indoxyl, which reacts spontaneously with oxygen to form the blue dye indigo.
