Maleamate amidohydrolase (EC 3.5.1.107, NicF) is an enzyme with systematic name maleamate amidohydrolase.[1] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

maleamate + H2O [math]\displaystyle{ \rightleftharpoons }[/math] maleate + NH3

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