| UniProt functional annotation for P22643 | |||
| UniProt code: P22643. |
| Organism: | Xanthobacter autotrophicus. | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Alphaproteobacteria; Rhizobiales; Xanthobacteraceae; Xanthobacter. | |
| Function: | Catalyzes hydrolytic cleavage of carbon-halogen bonds in halogenated aliphatic compounds, leading to the formation of the corresponding primary alcohols, halide ions and protons. Has a broad substrate specificity, which includes terminally mono- and di- chlorinated and brominated alkanes (up to C4 only). The highest activity was found with 1,2-dichloroethane, 1,3-dichloropropane, and 1,2-dibromoethane. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=1-haloalkane + H2O = a halide anion + a primary alcohol + H(+); Xref=Rhea:RHEA:19081, ChEBI:CHEBI:15377, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:15734, ChEBI:CHEBI:16042, ChEBI:CHEBI:18060; EC=3.8.1.5; | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=1,2-dichloroethane + H2O = 2-chloroethanol + chloride + H(+); Xref=Rhea:RHEA:25185, ChEBI:CHEBI:15377, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:17996, ChEBI:CHEBI:27789, ChEBI:CHEBI:28200; EC=3.8.1.5; | |
| Activity regulation: | Inhibited by thiol reagents such as p- chloromercuribenzoate and iodoacetamide. | |
| Biophysicochemical properties: | pH dependence: Optimum pH is 8.2.; Temperature dependence: Optimum temperature is 37 degrees Celsius.; | |
| Pathway: | Xenobiotic degradation; 1,2-dichloroethane degradation; glycolate from 1,2-dichloroethane: step 1/4. | |
| Subunit: | Monomer. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the haloalkane dehalogenase family. Type 1 subfamily. {ECO:0000305}. | |
