In enzymology a choloylglycine hydrolase (EC 3.5.1.24) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction3alpha7alpha12alpha-trihydroxy-5beta-cholan-24-oylglycine + H2O 3alpha7alpha12alpha-trihydroxy-5beta-cholanate + glycineThus the two substrates of this enzyme are 3alpha7alpha12alpha-trihydroxy-5beta-cholan-24-oylglycine and H2O whereas its two products are 3alpha7alpha12alpha-trihydroxy-5beta-cholanate and glycine.This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases those acting on carbon-nitrogen bonds other than peptide bonds specifically in linear amides.
