Peptide Hydrolase

Molecular classification
Enzyme, Hydrolase
01

Overview

Peptide hydrolases are enzymes that specifically catalyze the hydrolysis (cleavage) of peptide bonds in proteins and peptides. They belong to the broader class of hydrolases, which use water to break chemical bonds, resulting in the breakdown of larger molecules into smaller components. They play a critical role in protein catabolism and have clinical applications as debridement agents and potential antibacterial targets.
