Phosphotransferases. Catalyzing transfer of phosphate
group to substrates e.g. Hexokinase, glucokinase

ATP + Glucose Hexokinase ADP + D-Glucose –6-P
Acetyltransferase. Catalyzing transfer of acetyl group to
substrates e.g. choline acetyltransferase

enzymes-introsuction nomenclature, classification.ppt
- 2. • Biological catalysts which speed up the rate of reaction without becoming part of the reaction but themselves cannot initiate any chemical reaction. • Enzymes : • First name is of substrate • second, ending in “ASE” indicating type of reaction catalyzed. • Clarify the reaction , e.g. Malic Enzyme • L- Malate + NAD Pyruvate + NADH-H + CO2 • Malate NAD oxidoreductase (Decarboxylating) ENZYMES
- 3. Trival name • Gives no idea of source, function or reaction catalyzed by the enzyme. • Example: trypsin, thrombin, pepsin.
- 4. Systematic Name • According to the International union Of Biochemistry an enzyme name has two parts: -First part is the name of the substrates for the enzyme. -Second part is the type of reaction catalyzed by the enzyme.This part ends with the suffix “ase”. Example: Lactate dehydrogenase
- 5. EC number • Enzymes are classified into six different groups according to the reaction being catalyzed. • The nomenclature was determined by the Enzyme Commission in 1961 (with the latest update having occurred in 1992), hence all enzymes are assigned an “EC” number. • The classification does not take into account amino acid sequence (ie, homology), protein structure, or chemical mechanism.
- 6. EC numbers • EC numbers are four digits, for example a.b.c.d, where “a” is the class, “b” is the subclass, “c” is the sub- subclass, and “d” is the sub-sub-subclass. The “b” and “c” digits describe the reaction, while the “d” digit is used to distinguish between different enzymes of the same function based on the actual substrate in the reaction. • Example: for Alcohol:NAD+oxidoreductase EC number is 1.1.1.1
- 7. CLASSIFICATION OF ENZYMES Formulated by the enzyme commission of I.U.B six major classes based on the type of reactions catalyzed 1. Oxidoreductases • Catalyzing oxidation reduction reactions 2. Transferases • Catalyzing group transfer 3. Hydrolases • Catalyzing hydrolytic breakdown
- 8. Classification of Enzymes 4. Lyases • Catalysing removal of groups by mechanism other than hydrolysis and leaving behind double bonds 5. Isomerases • Catalysing interconversion of isomers 6. Ligases • Catalysing formation of bonds and new compounds 1. Oxidoreductases – Catalysing oxidation reduction reaction where one substrate is oxidized and other is reduced
- 9. CLASSIFICATION OF ENZYMES Oxidases. Catalyzing oxidation of the substrate and atomic oxygen acts as recipient of hydrogen e.g. Ascorbic acid oxidase, Cytochrome oxidase, Tyrosinase Ascorbic acid Oxidase Ascorbic acid + O2 Dehydro ascorbic acid
- 10. CLASSIFICATION OF ENZYMES Aerobic Dehydrogenases. Catalyzing oxidation of the substrate and molecular oxygen acts as recipients of hydrogen e.g. Glucose oxidase, L amino acid dehydrogenase, Xanthene dehydrogenase glucose oxidase Glucose Gluconolactone
- 11. CLASSIFICATION OF ENZYMES Anaerobic Dehydrogenases. Catalyzing oxidation of the substrate and coenzymes act as recipients of hydrogen e.g. Lactate Dehydrogenase with NAD and Glucose 6 phosphate dehydrogenase with NADP Lactate dehydrogenase Lactic acid Pyruvic acid + NAD + NADH – H+
- 12. CLASSIFICATION OF ENZYMES Oxygenases: Is an enzyme that oxidizes a substrate by transferring the oxygen from molecular oxygen O2 (as in air) to it. Types : a. Monooxygenases: Transfer one oxygen atom to the substrate, and reduce the other oxygen atom to water. b. Dioxygenases: Incorporate both atoms of molecular oxygen (O2) into the product(s) of the reaction. Among the most important monooxygenases are the cytochrome P450 oxidases, responsible for breaking down numerous chemicals in the body.
- 13. 2.TRANSFERASES Transaminases. Catalyzing transfer of amino group between an amino acid and a ketoacid e.g. Aspartate transaminase (AST), Alanine transaminase (ALT) Aspartate transaminase (AST) Glutamic acid + ketoglutaric acid + Oxalo acetic acid Aspartic acid Alanine transaminase (ALT) Glutamic acid + ketoglutaric acid + Pyruvic acid Alanine
- 14. 2.TRANSFERASES Transmethylases. Catalyzing transfer of methyl group between to substrates e.g. COMT Catechol-O- methyltransferase (COMT) Noradrenalin Adrenaline + CH3 Transpeptidases. Catalyzing transfer of amino acids to substrates e.g. Benzyl-SCoA transpeptidase Benzyl-SCoA transpeptidase Benzyl - SCoA Hippuric acid + Glycine
- 15. 2. TRANSFERASES Phosphotransferases. Catalyzing transfer of phosphate group to substrates e.g. Hexokinase, glucokinase 2.7.1.1 ATP D hexose 6 phosphotransferase [Hexokinase] ATP + Glucose Hexokinase ADP + D-Glucose –6-P Acetyltransferase. Catalyzing transfer of acetyl group to substrates e.g. choline acetyltransferase Acetyl-CoA+ Choline CoA + Acetyl- Choline
- 16. 3. HYDROLASES Catalysing hydrolytic breakdown of different bonds. Most of the GIT enzymes belong to this class Enzymes hydrolyzing carbohydrates 1. Polysaccharidases Starch Amylase Maltose, maltotrios, dextrins 2. Oligosaccharidases Dextrins Dextrinase glucose 3. Disacharidases Maltose, Lactose, Sucrose Disacharidases Maltase, Lactase, Sucrase monosaccharides Enzymes Hydrolyzing Lipids Triacyl glycerol lipase monoacyl glycerol + 2 F.F.A Cholesterol ester cholesterol free cholesterol + FFA esterase

- 21. 6. LIGASES • Catalyze reactions in which linking together of two molecules occur coupled with the breakdown of a high energy phosphate bonds like ATP, GTP Acetate + CoA +ATP Acetyl CoA Acetyl CoA+AMP Synthetase Succinate + CoA + ATP Succinyl CoA Succinyl CoA + ADP+ Pi Synthetase Pyruvate + CO2 + ATP Pyruvate Oxaloacetate + ADP + Pi Carboxylase Fatty acid + CoA + ATP Acyl CoA Acyl CoA (Activated fatty acid) + AMP + PiPi Synthetase
- 22. EC • Every enzyme code consists of the letters "EC" followed by four numbers separated by periods. Those numbers represent a progressively finer classification of the enzyme. • For example, the tripeptide aminopeptidases have the code "EC 3.4.11.4", whose components indicate the following groups of enzymes: • EC 3 enzymes are hydrolases (enzymes that use water to break up some other molecule) • EC 3.4 are hydrolases that act on peptide bonds • EC 3.4.11 are those hydrolases that cleave off the amino- terminal amino acid from a polypeptide • EC 3.4.11.4 are those that cleave off the amino-terminal end from a tripeptide
