In [[enzymology]], a '''quinaldate 4-oxidoreductase''' ({{EC number|1.3.99.18}}) is an [[enzyme]] that [[catalysis|catalyzes]] the [[chemical reaction]]

:quinaldate + acceptor + H<sub>2</sub>O <math>\rightleftharpoons</math> kynurenate + reduced acceptor

The 3 [[substrate (biochemistry)|substrates]] of this enzyme are [[quinaldate]], [[Electron acceptor|acceptor]], and [[water|H<sub>2</sub>O]], whereas its two [[product (chemistry)|products]] are [[kynurenate]] and [[reduced acceptor]].

This enzyme belongs to the family of [[oxidoreductase]]s, specifically those acting on the CH-CH group of donor with other acceptors.  The [[List of enzymes|systematic name]] of this enzyme class is '''quinoline-2-carboxylate:acceptor 4-oxidoreductase (hydroxylating)'''. This enzyme is also called '''quinaldic acid 4-oxidoreductase'''.
