Enzymes are classified into six major classes based on the type of reaction they catalyse: (1) Oxidoreductases - catalyse oxidation-reduction between two substrates (e.g. dehydrogenases, oxidases); (2) Transferases - transfer a group other than hydrogen from one substrate to another; (3) Hydrolases - catalyse hydrolysis of ester, ether, peptide, glycosidic bonds; (4) Lyases - add/remove groups to form double bonds, non-hydrolytically; (5) Isomerases - catalyse structural rearrangement (isomerisa …
