1. ADP-ribosylation factor 1

Pharmacological action: unknown

GTP-binding protein that functions as an allosteric activator of the cholera toxin catalytic subunit, an ADP- ribosyltransferase. Involved in protein trafficking among different compartments. Modulates vesicle budding and uncoating within the Golgi complex. Deactivation induces the redistribution of the entire Golgi complex to the endoplasmic reticulum, suggesting a crucial role in protein trafficking. In its GTP-bound form, its triggers the association with coat proteins with the Golgi membrane. The hydrolysis of ARF1-bound GTP, which is mediated by ARFGAPs proteins, is required for dissociation of coat proteins from Golgi membranes and vesicles

2. Haloalkane dehalogenase

Pharmacological action: unknown

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 since not only monochloroalkanes (C3 to C10) but also dichloroalkanes (> C3), bromoalkanes, and chlorinated aliphatic alcohols were good substrates. Shows almost no activity with 1,2-dichloroethane, but very high activity with the brominated analog. Is involved in the degradation of the important environmental pollutant gamma-hexachlorocyclohexane (lindane) as it also catalyzes conversion of 1,3,4,6-tetrachloro- 1,4-cyclohexadiene (1,4-TCDN) to 2,5-dichloro-2,5-cyclohexadiene- 1,4-diol (2,5-DDOL) via the intermediate 2,4,5-trichloro-2,5- cyclohexadiene-1-ol (2,4,5-DNOL)
