Lyase - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (224 words) |
 | In biochemistry, a lyase is an enzyme that catalyzes the breaking of various chemical bonds by means other than hydrolysis and oxidation, often forming a new double bond or a new ring structure. |
 | Lyases differ from other enzymes in that they only require one substrate for the reaction in one direction, but two substrates for the reverse reaction. |
 | Systematic names are formed as "substrate group lyase." Common names include decarboxylase, dehydratase, aldolase, etc. When the reverse reaction is more important, synthase may be used in the name. |
