In enzymology a carboxymethylhydantoinase (EC 3.5.2.4) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionL-5-carboxymethylhydantoin + H2O N-carbamoyl-L-aspartateThus the two substrates of this enzyme are L-5-carboxymethylhydantoin and H2O whereas its product is N-carbamoyl-L-aspartate.This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases those acting on carbon-nitrogen bonds other than peptide bonds specifically in cyclic amides.
