| Comment |
A flavoprotein (FAD). The enzyme displaces a diverse range of substituents from the 4-position of polyhalogenated phenols but requires that a halogen substituent be present at the 2-position [2]. If C-4 carries a halogen substituent, reaction 1 is catalysed; if C-4 is unsubstituted, reaction 2 is catalysed.
