Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Polymerases are not among the six internationally accepted classes of enzymes, which include hydrolases, ligases, oxidoreductases, transferases, isomerases, and lyases. Polymerases are a type of transferase enzyme, which catalyze the transfer of a functional group (in this case, a nucleotide) from one molecule to another. However, the six classes of enzymes are based on the types of reactions they catalyze, not on the specific substrates they act on.
