Vanillyl-alcohol oxidase (VAO) catalyzes the conversion of vanillyl alcohol and molecular oxygen to vaniline and hydrogen peroxide. VAO is a versatile biocatalyst and converts a wide variety of phenolic compounds. VAO is part of the 2,4-dichlorobenzoate degradation and uses FAD as a cofactor.

3D structures of vanillyl-alcohol oxidase

1ahu, 1vao – PsVAO – Penicillium simplicissimum
1qlt, 1dzn, 1e0y – PsVAO (mutant)
3fim – VAO – Pleurotus eryngii

Apo vanillyl-alcohol oxidase

1e8f - PsVAO (mutant)
1e8h - PsVAO (mutant) + ADP

Vanillyl-alcohol oxidase binary complex

1ahv – PsVAO + nitro-cresol
1ahz, 2vao – PsVAO + phenol derivative
1qlu, 1w1j, 1w1k, 1w1l, 1w1m - PsVAO (mutant) + phenol derivative
1e8g - PsVAO (mutant) + cresol derivative
