N-formylmaleamate deformylase

N-formylmaleamate deformylase (, NicD) is an enzyme with systematic name N-formylmaleamic acid amidohydrolase. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction


 * N-formylmaleamic acid + H2O $$\rightleftharpoons$$ maleamate + formate

The reaction is involved in the aerobic catabolism of nicotinic acid.
