EC 4.2.1.84 Details
EC number
4.2.1.84
Accepted name
nitrile hydratase
Reaction
an aliphatic amide = a nitrile + H2O
Other name(s)
nitrilase (ambiguous), 3-cyanopyridine hydratase, NHase, L-NHase, H-NHase, acrylonitrile hydratase, aliphatic nitrile hydratase, nitrile hydro-lyase
Systematic name
aliphatic-amide hydro-lyase (nitrile-forming)
CAS registry number
82391-37-5
Comment
Acts on short-chain aliphatic nitriles, converting them into the corresponding amides. Does not act on these amides or on aromatic nitriles. cf. EC 3.5.5.1 nitrilase.
