2-Formylbenzoate dehydrogenase

2-Formylbenzoate dehydrogenase (, 2-carboxybenzaldehyde dehydrogenase, 2CBAL dehydrogenase, PhdK) is an enzyme with systematic name 2-formylbenzoate:NAD+ oxidoreductase. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction


 * 2-formylbenzoate + NAD+ + H2O $$\rightleftharpoons$$ o-phthalic acid + NADH + H+

The enzyme is involved in phenanthrene degradation.
