4-chlorobenzoate dehalogenase
- 4-chlorobenzoate dehalogenase
In enzymology, a 4-chlorobenzoate dehalogenase (EC number|3.8.1.6) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
:4-chlorobenzoate + H2O 4-hydroxybenzoate + chloride
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are 4-chlorobenzoate and H2O, whereas its two products are 4-hydroxybenzoate and chloride.
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 4-chlorobenzoate chlorohydrolase. This enzyme is also called halobenzoate dehalogenase.
tructural studies
