Abstract
Multivariate analyses and experimental data have been used to evaluate the relationships between eight bacterial hydrolytic haloalkane dehal ogenases. The results indicate that seven of the dehalogenases investi gated can confidently be placed into two Classes [sensu Slater bull an d Hardman (1995) Biodegradation 6, 181-189] according to their substra te profiles, The remaining enzyme, isolated from Rhodococcus erythropo lis CP9, appears to represent a third Class of haloalkane dehalogenase s.
