Product Description
Haloalkane Dehalogenase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction 1-haloalkane + H2O ⇌ a primary alcohol + halide. Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are 1-haloalkane and H2O, whereas its two products are primary alcohol and halide. This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those acting on halide bonds in carbon-halide compounds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is 1-haloalkane halidohydrolase. Other names in common use include 1-chlorohexane halidohydrolase, and 1-haloalkane dehalogenase. Haloalkane dehalogenases are found in certain bacteria and belong the alpha-beta hydrolase fold superfamily of enzymes. They participate in several metabolic pathways: 1,2-dichloroethane degradation, 1-chloro-n-butane degradation, hexachlorocyclohexane degradation, 1,2-dibromoethane degradation, 2-chloroethyl-vinylether degradation, and 1,3-dichloropropene degradation.
