Deoxylimonate A-ring-lactonase

In enzymology, a deoxylimonate A-ring-lactonase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction


 * deoxylimonate + H2O $$\rightleftharpoons$$ deoxylimononic acid D-ring-lactone

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are deoxylimonate and H2O, whereas its product is deoxylimononic acid D-ring-lactone.

This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those acting on carboxylic ester bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is deoxylimonate A-ring-lactonohydrolase.
