Halide ions occur abundantly in Nature and are often associated with vital chemical and biochemical processes (Suzukia et al<\/em>., 2006; Stolting et al<\/em>., 2014). Among the halides, bioavailability of F\u02c9 anion (1.3 ppm) is lower in sea water relative to Cl\u02c9 anion (20,000 ppm) and Br\u02c9<\/sup> anion (70 ppm). Even the least abundant halide ion, i.e. I\u02c9 anion (0.02 ppm in surface water), had been found in ~ 120 iodine-containing natural products as it is easily oxidized by haloperoxidases to iodonium ion (I+<\/sup>) (Kazuaki, 1997; Pee and Curr, 2012; Vaillancourt et al<\/em>., 2006).<\/span><\/p>\n

F\u02c9 anion is the 13th<\/sup> most abundant element in Earth\u2019s crust, mostly found in ground water. F\u02c9 anion has the highest enthalpy (~120 kcal\/mole), which creates problem in nucleophilic catalysis from water, as the enzyme has to evolve a desolvation strategy (Furuya et al<\/em>., 2011). The haloperoxidases are unable to oxidize F\u02c9 anion because the oxidation potential of hydrogen peroxide (-1.8 eV) is lower than that of F\u02c9 (-2.87 eV) but higher than that of the other halogens (Cl\u02c9 = -1.36 eV; Br\u02c9 = -1.07 eV; I\u02c9 = -0.54 eV) (Ballschmiter, 2003). These anomalous physical properties of F\u02c9 anion have limited the evolution of fluorine biochemistry and only 21 biosynthesized fluorine containing natural molecules are known, compared to thousands of chlorine and bromine containing homologues.<\/span><\/p>\n

Large diversity of halogenated compounds has been found in the environment. Different halogenating enzymes like haloperoxidases, halogenases<\/em>, etc. play a major role in biocatalytic incorporation of halogen into natural products and biomolecules (Perrin, 2007). Haloperoxidases <\/em>such as chloroperoxidases<\/em> catalyse the halogenation reaction, where they may directly involve halide anions (Cl\u02c9, Br\u02c9 or I\u02c9 but not F\u02c9) or chlorite (ClO2<\/sub>\u02c9) or hypohalous acid (HOX) as halogenating agents (Van pee, 2003; Hofrichter and Ullrich, 2006; Muffler et al<\/em>. 2007). They differ by the cations present in the prosthetic group which mostly contain heme iron or vanadate co-factor (Vaillancourt et al<\/em>., 2006).<\/span><\/p>\n

Interestingly, halogenases like \u03b1-KG-dependent halogenases and flavin dependent halogenases are capable of catalysing the regioselective carbon-halogen bond formation (Hasegawa et al<\/em>., 1999; Keller et al<\/em>., 2000; Hagan et al<\/em>., 2002).<\/span><\/p>\n

The fluorinating enzyme was first isolated from the soil bacterium Streptomyces cattelya<\/em> and subsequently three more fluorinating enzymes had been identified (Sanada et al<\/em>., 1986; Deng et al<\/em>., 2002; Huang et al<\/em>., 2014). When the bacterium grows in a medium containing F\u02c9 anion, the secondary metabolism produce bioactive fluorinated natural products (Schaffrath et al<\/em>., 2003). For instance, it was showed that fluorinase catalyzed the nucleophilic substitution reaction of 5\u055b-carbon of the ribose ring of S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) involving SN<\/sub>2 pathway (Scheme 1) to generate 5\u2032-fluorodeoxyadenosine (5\u2032-FDA) and L-methionine (Flury and Papritz, 1993; Schaffrath et al<\/em>., 2003; Deng et al<\/em>., 2014).<\/span><\/p>\n

Cl\u02c9 ion is essential to human health and is transported across cell membranes by various proteins. It maintains osmotic pressure and pH across cell membrane and helps in restoration of normal acid-base and potassium equilibrium. Numerous applications in industry ranging from anti-freezing agents to metal processing require the use of halide ions. Although occur naturally, F\u02c9 and Br\u02c9 anions may be environmental pollutants, both of them being toxic at high concentration (Chiun, 1996; Vengosh and Pankratov, 1998; Ayoob and Gupta, 2006; Peckham and Awofeso, 2014). Br\u02c9 anion is an undesired by-side product of a number of industrial chemical processes (Aumont and Tressol, 1986; Haldimann et al<\/em>., 1998). It is used as a sedative and anticonvulsant in medicine and in photographic industry. I\u02c9 anion is involved in thyroid physiology, photo electrochemical solar cells and as a cofactor in many antimicrobial actions (Jalali et al<\/em>, 2005).<\/span><\/p>\n

Previous studies suggested that low levels of F\u02c9 anion can benefit dental health and can widely be used for the prevention of dental caries, in treatment of osteoporosis and water purification (Kleerekoper, 1998; Loe, 2000). It is present in many products associated with oral hygiene and in a number of minerals (Kissa, 1997; Geddes, 2001). However, excessive ingestion may result in fluorosis, nephrotoxic changes, urolithiasis and even kidney disorders (Harper and Hagan, 1994; Cittanova, 1996; Siener and Hesse, 2003; Deng et al<\/em>., 2004).<\/span><\/p>\n

Conclusion:<\/strong><\/p>\n

The halide anions are very much essential in our day to day life from environmental, biological and chemical points of view. They play a sign<\/span>ificant role in several biochemical reactions. Thereby it\u2019s important to study these anions and their utility.<\/p>\n
