In enzymology, a pentanamidase (EC 3.5.1.50) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
- pentanamide + H2O pentanoate + NH3
pentanoate + NH3Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are pentanamide and H2O, whereas its two products are valerate and NH3.
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 pentanamide amidohydrolase. This enzyme is also called valeramidase.
