Answers
Explanation:
Classes of Enzymes
Class
Chemical Reaction Catalyzed
Sample Enzymes
Oxidoreductase
Oxidation-reduction in which oxygen and hydrogen are gained or lost
Cytochrome oxidase, lactate dehydrogenase
Transferase
Transfer of functional groups, such as an amino group, acetyl group, or phosphate group
Acetate kinase, alanine deaminase
Hydrolase
Hydrolysis (addition of water)
Lipase, sucrase
Lyase
Removal of groups of atoms without hydrolysis
Oxalate decarboxylase, isocitrate lyase
Isomerase
Rearrangement of atoms within a molecule
Glucose-phosphate isomerase, alanine racemase
Ligase
Joining of two molecules (using energy usually derived from the breakdown of ATP)
Acetyl-CoA synthetase, DNA ligase

Enzymes can be defined as biological polymers that catalyse biochemical reactions . .. .. ...
According to the International Union of Biochemists (IUB) , enzymes are classified into six functional classes and are classified based on the type of reaction in which they are used to catalyse . The six types of enzymes are oxidoreductase , hydrolases , transferases , lyases , isomerases , ligases .
Oxidoreductases catalyses the oxidation reaction where the electrons tend to travel from one form of the molecule to other .
Hydrolases are hydrolytic enzymes which catalyses the hydrolysis reaction by adding water to cleave the bond and hydrolyze it .
