Function
BOXB_AROEV The BoxA/BoxB complex catalyzes the aerobic reduction/oxygenation of the aromatic ring of benzoyl-CoA to form 2,3-epoxy-2,3-dihydrobenzoyl-CoA. BoxB acts as the benzoyl-CoA oxygenase, after being reduced by the reductase component BoxA. BoxAB does not act on NADH or benzoate.[1]
