ENZYME entry: EC 1.13.11.49

Accepted Name
Chlorite O(2)-lyase.
Alternative Name(s)
Chlorite dismutase.
Reaction catalysed
Chloride + O(2) <=> chlorite
Cofactor(s)
Fe cation; Heme b.
Comment(s)
  • Reaction occurs in the reverse direction in chlorate- and perchlorate-reducing bacteria.
  • There is no activity when chlorite is replaced by hydrogen peroxide, perchlorate, chlorate or nitrite.
  • The term 'chlorite dismutase' is misleading as the reaction does not involve dismutation/disproportionation.
