Hydrolases commonly function as biochemical catalysts that use water to break a chemical bond,This typically results in dividing a larger molecule into smaller molecules.Some common examples of hydrolase enzymes are esterases including lipases, phosphatases, glycosidases, peptidases, and nucleosidases. Hydrolase enzymes are important for the body because they have degradative properties.In lipids, lipases contribute to the breakdown of fats and lipoproteins and other larger molecules into smaller molecules like fatty acids and glycerol. Fatty acids and other small molecules are used for synthesis and as a source of energy. ydrolases are classified as EC 3 in the EC number classification of enzymes.
