Hydrolysis means to split with water. Enzymes use the chemical properties of water to break chemical bonds and produce smaller molecules. When a molecule is hydrolyzed a chemical bond is broken that divides the molecule into two component molecules. During hydrolysis the water molecule splits into a hydrogen and a hydroxyl (OH). The hydrogen bonds to one of the two component molecules at the point where the bond was broken. The hydroxyl bonds to the other component molecule, also at the point of the broken bond. |
