- Source: ADP-ribosyl-(dinitrogen reductase) hydrolase
In enzymology, an ADP-ribosyl-[dinitrogen reductase] hydrolase (EC 3.2.2.24) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
ADP-D-ribosyl-[dinitrogen reductase]
⇌
{\displaystyle \rightleftharpoons }
ADP-D-ribose + [dinitrogen reductase]
Hence, this enzyme has one substrate, [[ADP-D-ribosyl-[dinitrogen reductase]]], and two products, ADP-D-ribose and dinitrogen reductase.
This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those glycosylases that hydrolyse N-glycosyl compounds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is ADP-D-ribosyl-[dinitrogen reductase] ADP-ribosylhydrolase. Other names in common use include azoferredoxin glycosidase, azoferredoxin-activating enzymes, dinitrogenase reductase-activating glycohydrolase, and ADP-ribosyl glycohydrolase.
