In enzymology, a L-lysine-lactamase (EC 3.5.2.11) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
- L-lysine 1,6-lactam + H2O
L-lysine
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are L-lysine 1,6-lactam and H2O, whereas its product is L-lysine. Enzymes are Biomolecules that catalyze ( ie increase the rates of Chemical reactions Almost all enzymes are Proteins This article is about the Enzyme Commission codes For the European Commission system for coding chemicals see EC-No. Enzymes are Biomolecules that catalyze ( ie increase the rates of Chemical reactions Almost all enzymes are Proteins Catalysis is the process in which the rate of a Chemical reaction is increased by means of a Chemical substance known as a catalyst A chemical reaction is a process that always results in the interconversion of Chemical substances The substance or substances initially involved in a chemical reaction are called Water is a common Chemical substance that is essential for the survival of all known forms of Life. A product is a substance that forms as a result of a Biological - or Chemical reaction.
This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, those acting on carbon-nitrogen bonds other than peptide bonds, specifically in cyclic amides. In Biochemistry, a hydrolase is an Enzyme that catalyzes the Hydrolysis of a Chemical bond. The systematic name of this enzyme class is L-lysine-1,6-lactam lactamhydrolase. Other names in common use include L-alpha-aminocaprolactam hydrolase, and L-lysinamidase.
