UniProtKB description:  Catalyzes the dehalogenation of halotyrosines such as 3-iodo-L-tyrosine and 3,5-diiodo-L-tyrosine (PubMed:24153409, PubMed:28157283). Likely to also catalyze the dehalogenation of other halotyrosines such as 3-bromo-L-tyrosine, 3-chloro-L-tyrosine and 3-iodo-L-tyrosine (By similarity). Activity towards 3-iodo-L-tyrosine is much stronger than activity towards 3,5-diiodo-L-tyrosine and 2-iodophenol (PubMed:28157283, PubMed:24153409).
