In enzymology an alliin lyase (EC 4.4.1.4) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionan S-alkyl-L-cysteine S-oxide an alkyl sulfenate + 2-aminoacrylateHence this enzyme has one substrate S-alkyl-L-cysteine S-oxide and two products alkyl sulfenate and 2-aminoacrylate.This enzyme belongs to the family of lyases specifically the class of carbon-sulfur lyases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is S-alkyl-L-cysteine S-oxide alkyl-sulfenate-lyase (2-aminoacrylate-forming).
