Enzymes are listed here by their classification in the International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology's Enzyme Commission (EC) numbering system: Category:Oxidoreductases (EC 1) ( Oxidoreductase )
The word enzyme was used later to refer to nonliving substances such as pepsin, and the word ferment was used to refer to chemical activity produced by living organisms. [13] Eduard Buchner submitted his first paper on the study of yeast extracts in 1897.
Enzymes appear in the subcategory Category:Enzymes by function according to the EC number classification: . EC 1 Oxidoreductases: catalyze oxidation/reduction reactions; EC 2 Transferases: transfer a functional group (e.g. a methyl or phosphate group)
Enzymes appear in this category according to the EC number classification: EC 1 Oxidoreductases: catalyze oxidation/reduction reactions; EC 2 Transferases: transfer a functional group (e.g. a methyl or phosphate group) EC 3 Hydrolases: catalyze the hydrolysis of various bonds; EC 4 Lyases: cleave various bonds by means other than hydrolysis and ...
In molecular biology, glycoside hydrolase family 6 is a family of glycoside hydrolases EC 3.2.1., which are a widespread group of enzymes that hydrolyse the glycosidic bond between two or more carbohydrates, or between a carbohydrate and a non-carbohydrate moiety. A classification system for glycoside hydrolases, based on sequence similarity ...
The Enzyme Commission number (EC number) is a numerical classification scheme for enzymes, based on the chemical reactions they catalyze. [1] As a system of enzyme nomenclature, every EC number is associated with a recommended name for the corresponding enzyme-catalyzed reaction. EC numbers do not specify enzymes but enzyme-catalyzed reactions.
Industrial enzymes are enzymes that are commercially used in a variety of industries such as pharmaceuticals, chemical production, biofuels, food and beverage, and consumer products. Due to advancements in recent years, biocatalysis through isolated enzymes is considered more economical than use of whole cells.
