BIOCHEM I EXAM 2

1.

oxidoreductases

Oxidation-reduction reaction (ex: lactate dehydrogenase)

2.

transferases

group transfer (ex: nucleoside monophosphate kinase)

3.

Hydrolases

hydrolysis reactions (transfer of functional groups to water) (ex: chymotrypsin)

4.

Lyases

Addition or removal of groups to form double bonds (ex: fumarase)

5.

Isomerases

isomerization (intramolecular group transfer) (ex: triose phosphate isomerase)

6.

Ligases

ligation of two substrates at the expense of ATP hydrolysis (ex: aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase)
