- Phosphopyruvate hydratase
In
enzymology , a phosphopyruvate hydratase (EC number|4.2.1.11) is anenzyme that catalyzes thechemical reaction :2-phospho-D-glycerate phosphoenolpyruvate + H2O
Hence, this enzyme has one substrate,
2-phospho-D-glycerate , and two products,phosphoenolpyruvate and H2O.This enzyme belongs to the family of
lyase s, specifically the hydro-lyases, which cleave carbon-oxygen bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is 2-phospho-D-glycerate hydro-lyase (phosphoenolpyruvate-forming). Other names in common use include enolase, 2-phosphoglycerate dehydratase, 14-3-2-protein, nervous-system specific enolase, phosphoenolpyruvate hydratase, 2-phosphoglycerate dehydratase, 2-phosphoglyceric dehydratase, 2-phosphoglycerate enolase, gamma-enolase, and 2-phospho-D-glycerate hydro-lyase. This enzyme participates inglycolysis / gluconeogenesis . At least one compound,Phosphonoacetohydroxamate is known to inhibit this enzyme. The human gene that makes this enzyme isENO2 .tructural studies
