Question

Ligases is a class of enzymes responsible for catalysing the linking together of two compounds. Which of the following bonds is not catalysed by it?

A

C-C

B

P-O

C

C-O

D

C-N

Step-by-Step Solution

According to the text, Ligases are enzymes catalysing the linking together of 2 compounds, specifically citing the joining of 'C-O, C-S, C-N, P-O etc. bonds'. The text mentions C-C bonds in the context of Hydrolases (catalysing hydrolysis of C-C bonds), making C-C the exception in the list provided for Ligases in this specific source .

Exam Context & Concepts Covered
