NEET2026Biology
Q.
The following reaction depicts the activity of a particular class of enzymes :

Identify the enzymes class ‘E’ from the following options :
- A
Transferases
- B
Isomerases
- C
Lyases
- D
Ligases
Solution
Lyases catalyse the removal of groups from substrates by non-hydrolytic mechanisms, often leaving a double bond, exactly as shown in the reaction.
Transferases transfer a group between two substrates, isomerases interconvert isomers, and ligases join two compounds together using ATP.
