6-aminohexanoate-dimer hydrolase

In enzymology, a 6-aminohexanoate-dimer hydrolase (EC 3.5.1.46) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction N-(6-aminohexanoyl)-6-aminohexanoate + H2O 2 6-aminohexanoate. Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are N-(6-aminohexanoyl)-6-aminohexanoate and H2O, whereas its product is two Molecules of 6-aminohexanoate.

This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, those acting on carbon-nitrogen bonds other than peptide bonds, specifically in linear amides. The systematic name of this enzyme class is N-(6-aminohexanoyl)-6-aminohexanoate amidohydrolase. This enzyme is also called 6-aminohexanoic acid oligomer hydrolase.

Structural studies

As of late 2007, 3 structures have been solved for this class of enzymes, with PDB accession codes 1WYB, 1WYC, and 2DCF.

gollark: I meant text, not images, but I suppose you could just download a specific size.
gollark: You could pull from arbitrary active Twitter accounts.
gollark: YouTube is probably not a great choice because streams come in many different formats.
gollark: If you just use a normal RNG thing, you could do evil and bias the raffle and nobody would be able to check.
gollark: That solves exactly zero (0) of the problems.
