In enzymology an IMP cyclohydrolase (EC 3.5.4.10) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionIMP + H2O 5-formamido-1-(5-phospho-D-ribosyl)imidazole-4-carboxamideThus the two substrates of this enzyme are IMP and H2O whereas its product is 5-formamido-1-(5-phospho-D-ribosyl)imidazole-4-carboxamide.This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases those acting on carbon-nitrogen bonds other than peptide bonds specifically in cyclic amidines.
