What are the different classes of enzymes? Explain any two with the type of reaction they catalyse.

Answers (1)

There are six different enzyme classes which can be categorised as Lysates, Isomerase, Oxidoreductase, Transferase, Hydrolase, and Ligase. The two of them are discussed below:

a) Oxidoreductase:
These enzymes assist with the process of simultaneous oxidation as well as reduction of two substrates.
S reduced + S’reduced → S oxidised + S’ oxidised

b) Hydrolases:
Hydrolysis of a molecule is facilitated by these enzymes.
Sucrose → Glucose + Fructose
