DE   Benzoyl-CoA reductase.
AN   Benzoyl-CoA reductase (dearomatizing).
CA   Benzoyl-CoA + reduced acceptor + 2 ATP = cyclohexa-1,5-diene-1-carbonyl-
CA   CoA + acceptor + 2 ADP + 2 phosphate.
CF   Magnesium or manganese.
CC   -!- Reduced methyl viologen can act as electron donor.
CC   -!- Inactive toward aromatic acids that are not CoA esters but will also
CC       catalyze the reaction: NH(3) + acceptor + 2 ADP + 2 phosphate + H(2)O
CC       = hydroxylamine + reduced acceptor + 2 ATP.
CC   -!- In the presence of reduced acceptor, but in the absence of oxidizable
CC       substrate, the enzyme catalyzes the hydrolysis of ATP to ADP plus
CC       phosphate.
