ID   3.8.1.11
DE   2-haloacid dehalogenase (configuration-retaining).
AN   2-haloalkanoic acid dehalogenase.
AN   2-haloalkanoid acid halidohydrolase.
AN   DL-2-haloacid dehalogenase.
AN   DL-DEXr.
CA   (1) an (S)-2-haloacid + H2O = a (2S)-2-hydroxycarboxylate + a halide
CA   anion + H(+).
CA   (2) an (R)-2-haloacid + H2O = a (2R)-2-hydroxycarboxylate + a halide
CA   anion + H(+).
CC   -!- Dehalogenates both (S)- and (R)-2-haloalkanoic acids to the
CC       corresponding (S)- and (R)-hydroxyalkanoic acids, respectively, with
CC       retention of configuration at C-2 (see also EC 3.8.1.2, EC 3.8.1.9
CC       and EC 3.8.1.10).
