Which of these options correctly represents the functions of all these enzymes? Transferase Ligase Isomerase Lyase (i) Enable transfer of group other than H Linking together of two compounds Interconversion of molecules for similar optical, geometrical or positional shapes Removes groups by process other than hydrolysis (ii) Linking together of two compounds Interconversion of molecules for similar optical, geometric

Options

  1. A(i)
  2. B(ii)
  3. C(iii)
  4. D(iv)

Correct answer

A. (i)

Step-by-step solution

Enzymes are the biocatalyst of biological world. Enzymes are mostly proteins and are classified into groups depending on their type of activity. Ligases are those that join two groups together. Lyases are group of enzyme which break the substrate without hydrolysis. Transferase help in transferring the functional group in the substrate reaction. Isomerases are the category that helps in converting the molecules into their isomers.
