Adenosyl-chloride synthase (EC 2.5.1.94, chlorinase, 5'-chloro-5'-deoxyadenosine synthase) is an enzyme with systematic name S-adenosyl-L-methionine:chloride adenosyltransferase.[1] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

S-adenosyl-L-methionine + chloride 5-deoxy-5-chloroadenosine + L-methionine

This enzyme is isolated from the marine bacterium Salinispora tropica.
