In enzymology a N-formylglutamate deformylase (EC 3.5.1.68) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionN-formyl-L-glutamate + H2O formate + L-glutamateThus the two substrates of this enzyme are N-formyl-L-glutamate and H2O whereas its two products are formate and L-glutamate.This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases those acting on carbon-nitrogen bonds other than peptide bonds specifically in linear amides.
