In enzymology a 3-hydroxy-3-isohexenylglutaryl-CoA lyase (EC 4.1.3.26) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction3-hydroxy-3-(4-methylpent-3-en-1-yl)glutaryl-CoA 7-methyl-3-oxooct-6-enoyl-CoA + acetateHence this enzyme has one substrate 3-hydroxy-3-(4-methylpent-3-en-1-yl)glutaryl-CoA and two products 7-methyl-3-oxooct-6-enoyl-CoA and acetate.This enzyme belongs to the family of lyases specifically the oxo-acid-lyases which cleave carbon-carbon bonds.
